Published on: February 23, 2019 10:10 PM

Afghanistan on Saturday scored a world record T20 international score of 278-3 as they demolished Ireland in the Indian city of Dehradun.

Hazratullah Zazai hit an unbeaten 162 off 62 balls with 16 sixes another record and 11 fours in a free hitting innings.

Ireland made 194-6 to lose by 84 runs, their second straight defeat in the three match series.

Zazai made his century off just 42 balls the second quickest in T20 internationals completed with the ninth six of his innings.

Four of the sixes came off Kevin O’Brien in the 17th over, which reaped 28 runs in all.
