Ireland vs South Africa Betting Tips

South Africa to score over 24.5 runs before 1st dismissal (1.87@Batery)

South Africa is a very strong team. They looked weak in the T20Is after their loss against India in the T20 World Cup finals. The team is missing a few of their players in this series. The team opened with Reeza Hendricks and Ryan Rickleton in this series. The pair scored 136 runs for their opening partnership in the game. Rickleton scored 76 runs while Hendricks knocked 51 runs in the game. Rickleton and Hendricks average at 24.28 & 29.71 respectively in their T20I careers. Looking at their current form, South Africa will be confident with their opening pair and shall score high before their 1st dismissal in the next game.

Ireland vs South Africa Toss Prediction

The Sheikh Zayed Stadium played out of character and aided the batters as the bowlers struggled in the second half of the first T20I game. But the pitch still assists spinners and provides minimal turn and lower bounce. The skies will be clear on the weather front, and there will be no hint of rain during the game. Hence the skipper winning the toss will be tempted to bat first in the upcoming second T20I.

Weather Report

It will be a hot day in Abu Dhabi on September 29. The temperature will peak at 38 degrees Celsius. The skies will remain sunny and there is no prediction of rain.
