In a riveting turn of events, Ireland made an electrifying comeback in their ongoing Test match against Bangladesh in Dhaka. At the close of day three, the Irish team secured a commanding lead of 131 runs with two wickets left to spare.

After losing four of their top batters for a measly 13 runs on day two, the Irish side seemed to be on the brink of a crushing defeat. However, the trio of Lorcan Tucker, Harry Tector, and Andy McBrine had other plans in store.

With a display of exceptional batting, the Irish team fought back against the Bangladesh bowlers, forming significant partnerships that left the hosts reeling. Tucker's magnificent Test debut saw him become only the second Irish batter after Kevin O'Brien to hit a century in his debut.

Despite the hard efforts of Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan and his team, they were unable to stifle the Irish resistance. The visitors managed to score an impressive 259 runs on day three, losing only four wickets in the process.

However, the day's outcome could have been vastly different had Litton Das not missed a crucial opportunity to dismiss Tucker early on. Nonetheless, the Irish team persevered, displaying a potent mix of patience and passion to overcome their early struggles.

Earlier in the first innings, Ireland had struggled to score and were dismissed for a paltry 214, with Taijul claiming five wickets for Bangladesh. In response, the hosts posted a total of 369 runs, giving them a significant 155-run lead over Ireland, with McBrine taking six wickets— the most by a Ireish spinner in a Test innings so far.
