Chasing this score, Ireland lost 3 wickets on 65 runs before the rain interrupted the match.

Ireland vs Bangladesh Tournament Prediction & Betting Tips 2023

Ireland lost their chance to enter in the ODI world cup because the rain affected the first match. Now they would like to win the remaining two matches for their pride but they would find it difficult because Bangladesh is in excellent shape, as evidenced by their recent results against India, England, Sri Lanka, and Ireland. In the first match of the tournament, Ireland had a poor batting performance by losing 3 wickets on just 65 runs. They need a good start from their opening batsmen.

Batting enthusiasts may wager on players from the Irish team, such as Andrew Balbirnie, Mark Adair, Curtis Campher, Paul Stirling, and Harry Tector, as well as on Bangladeshi players Shakib al Hasan, Linton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, and Mustfiqur Rahim.

Ireland vs Bangladesh Match Toss Prediction

The County Ground in Chelmsford normally has a great pitch for batting. The first ten or so overs will have some movement, though, because of the cloudy and windy conditions. The batters will probably have some difficulty during that time. The team batting first will try to set a target of 270+ runs.

Weather Report

Rain may interrupt the second match of the series as well as the first one as there are 90% rain chances. We expect a temperature around 18 degree celsius with a high 79% of humidity. Wind speed is expected to be 16 kmph.

Ireland Team Form

Ireland is not in a good shape. In the previous match the team lost 3 crucial wickets on just 65 runs. In bowling Josh Little is in a good knock but in other aspects they are lacking from the opposite side. As a result of recent losses to Bangladesh in the ODI and T20 series, the team's momentum is not positive. The team may count on Andrew Balbirnie, Mark Adair, Curtis Campher, Harry Tector to have strong innings, as well as Josh Little to pick up a few wickets.

Bangladesh Team Form

Team is in fantastic form and their good momentum has continued since their victories against India, England and Ireland.

In the last game Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mushfiqur Rahim showed their brilliant knocks.

Ireland vs Bangladesh Betting odds

Bangladesh is still the bookmaker’s favorite team because of their dominance over England in T20s and Ireland and India in ODIs while playing at home. Ireland, on the other hand, struggled in the most recent competitions they participated in. Bookmakers have offered Bangladesh and Ireland winning odds of close to 1.47 and 2.88, respectively.

  • Bangladesh to win @ 1.47
  • Ireland to win @ 2.88

Ireland vs Bangladesh Top Team Batsmen

Harry Tector, who has scored 456 runs in the last 10 games at an average of 65.14, and Paul Stirling, who has scored 256 runs in the previous 10 games at an average of 32, are the best Irish batters to watch out for in this series.

Shakib al Hasan, an all-arounder, and Litton Das will be crucial to Bangladesh's batting line. Shakib is best familiar with the circumstances in this part of England. He scored 93 runs in the first ODI and 73 runs in the second ODI of his successful home series against Ireland. With two half centuries in the most recent ODI series, Litton Das is also playing an incredible innings that will be a challenge for Irish bowlers.

Ireland vs Bangladesh Top Team Bowler

Josh Little will undoubtedly be one of Ireland's main bowlers after picking up 3 wickets in the last match. He has also played in the IPL and has been extremely impressive. Mark Adair, who had a superb T20 series with 5 wickets, is another important threat.

Bangladesh's bowling attack will be heavily reliant on Shakib al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Recent series saw Shakib put on an outstanding all-around effort, while Mehidy Hasan Miraz's slow off-breaks could be a challenge for Irish batters.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Bangladesh

In the just concluded one-day and T20 series, the Bangladeshi team easily defeated the Irish team. Given that they have won nine out of the last twelve games, they will be overwhelming favorites to win the series. It won't be as easy for Bangladesh anymore, despite the fact that the odds are in their favor given the current situation. The track will help bowlers like Curtis Campher and Josh Little and hamper Bangladesh's chances to win the series. Bangladesh has advanced significantly in the one-day format recently and is capable of occasionally defeating even the greatest teams. We predict Bangladesh will win the second ODI game and grab the series lead.

  • Bangladesh to win @ 1.47
  • Ireland to win @ 2.88
