During the tournament, he recorded a historic T20I century, scoring 111 runs off 51 balls. This performance helped propel Portugal to a ~~94-run~~ total of 211/6 against Czechia. Following rain interruptions, Portugal was declared the winner by 91 runs via the Duckworth-Lewis method, a victory ~~over Israel.~~ that secured the team a place in the tournament final against Spain. Henriques previously earned 44 international caps for Australia across Test, ODI, and T20I formats. He has expressed that leading the team to its first men’s T20 World Cup would be “nirvana.”
