IRE vs ZIM 1st ODI Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Prediction

IRE vs ZIM Dream11 Prediction | Ireland vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Team Preview

Ireland Team Preview & Dream11 Prediction:

Ireland lost all three matches they played during the Tri-Nation Series they hosted twice to West Indies and once to Bangladesh. They followed that up with a two-game series against Afghanistan won the first game and ended in a heavy defeat in the second game.

Shane Getkate and Simi Singh have been recalled to the Ireland squad, with George Dockrell and Barry McCarthy absent from the squad. Singh could replace McCarthy from the team which lost their most recent match.

James McCollum may open the innings with Paul Stirling. Paul Stirling hit half-centuries in both matches against Afghanistan in Ireland’s most recent ODI series and he also top-scored for the hosts in the Ireland Tri-Nation Series against Bangladesh and West Indies.

Andrew Balbirnie is expected to bat at Number 3. His recent form in all formats has been good too. So, we can expect him as a safe captain choice for your Ireland vs Zimbabwe dream11 team.

William Porterfield, Kevin O’Brien, and Gary Wilson will handle the middle order batting. William Porterfield is looking in good form since last few games. He has struck two back to back half centuries. He has averaged good in ODIs and will hold the key for them.

Mark Adair will look to finish the Innings. He is a good finisher with the bat as well as the bowl. Mark Adair took seven wickets in the two games against Afghanistan.

Experienced opening bowling combination of Boyd Rankin and Tim Murtagh also remain key. Rankin has ten wickets in his last five ODI. He will be supported by Mark Adair and Kevin O’Brien.

Zimbabwe Team Preview & Dream11 Prediction:

Elton Chigumbura, Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, Ryan Burl, Christopher Mpofu, and Richmond Mutmbami were the unused players against Netherland.

Burl Chigumbura and Mpofu have performed well in the T20i series that followed to earn a recall to the ODI team.

Hamilton Masakadza and Solomon Mire will open the innings. Solomon Mire is the player who rotates the stick well and he will play according to the match situation.

Craig Ervine will bat at one down. Craig Ervine showed good form in recent times. So, we can expect him as a safe captain choice for your IRE vs ZIM dream11 team.

Brendan Taylor, a wicketkeeper-batsman and statistically one of the finest players that Zimbabwe has ever produced, Brendan Taylor’s form are good and he is consistently one of Zimbabwe’s star men with an average of 35.25.

Sikandar Raza and Sean Williams have contributed with either bat or ball in Zimbabwe’s recent successes. Sean Williams has been in good batting and bowling form in recent series.

Kyle Jarvism and Chris Mpofu will lead the pace attack. Sikandar Raza and Sean Williams take care of the spin bowling.
