England vs Ireland Betting Odds

England to have a better opening partnership than Ireland

In their last encounter, England outperformed Ireland in the aspect of preserving their initial partnership. Ireland's opening pair, Andy Balbirnie and Paul Stirling, achieved a partnership score of 46/1, losing their first wicket during the fourth over. Conversely, England's opening batsmen, Phil Salt and Will Jacks, maintained a more substantial opening partnership of 56/1, with their first wicket falling in the seventh over. England displayed greater resilience in preserving their first wicket partnership, and can be expected to display a similar performance in the upcoming match.

England vs Ireland Best Batters

Will Jacks to be England’s Best Batter

In their previous encounter with Ireland, Will Jacks, the opening batsman for England, emerged as the standout performer. He delivered an impressive performance, notching up 94 runs from 88 deliveries, securing his position as the leading run-scorer of the match. Considering his recent form, he can be expected to emerge as their top batsman.

George Dockrell to be Ireland’s Best Batter

George Dockrell was the top run scorer for Ireland in their last match, having amassed 43 runs from 54 deliveries. He was their main contributor and it's reasonable to expect that he will once again take on the mantle of being their top batsman in the upcoming fixture.

England vs Ireland Best Bowlers

Rehan Ahmed to be England’s Best Bowler

Rehan Ahmed showcased an outstanding performance against Ireland, establishing himself as the best bowler of the match. He completed his allotted ten overs while allowing only 54 runs, resulting in an impressive economy rate of 5.40. Additionally, he claimed four wickets during his spell. Given his exceptional performance in that match, Rehan Ahmed can be counted upon to maintain his position as the top-performing bowler for the team in the next game.

Craig Young to be Ireland’s Best Bowler

Craig Young was Ireland’s second highest wicket-taker in the last match, having captured two wickets. He bowled seven overs and conceded 38 runs, resulting in an economy rate of 5.42. He performed well, especially considering he did not bowl his full quota of ten overs and still claimed two wickets. He can be expected to emerge as their top bowler once again.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: England

England has been on an incredible winning streak, having triumphed in their last four matches. They managed to secure a 3-1 victory against New Zealand in their ODI series and had a drawn T20I series before that. In June of this year, England also dominated in an Only Test against Ireland, winning by ten wickets. Their outstanding performance has been evident across all formats, showcasing their strength.

Ireland's form was not particularly weak leading up to the ODI series and they had secured three consecutive wins during the World Cup Qualifiers. However, it's important to note that their opponents in those matches were considerably weaker, giving Ireland the upper hand. In contrast, England's substantial victory over a strong team like New Zealand positions them as the favourites to claim victory and assert their dominance in the ongoing series.

England to win @ 1.14 (Parimatch)

Ireland to win @ 5.65 (Parimatch)
