Bryce powers Scotland to maiden Women’s T20 World Cup win against Ireland

Scotland claimed their maiden Women's T20 World Cup victory on Saturday, defeating Ireland by 40 runs (161-5 vs 121). Captain Kathryn Bryce top-scored with 60 from 39 balls and also took a caught-and-bowled dismissal, while Kirstie Gordon — who switched allegiance from England back to Scotland this year — contributed figures of 3-16. The 40-run win marks a historic first World Cup triumph for the Scottish women's team.
