IRE vs ZIM Dream11 Prediction: Ireland will take on Zimbabwe in the first of the five-match T20I series at Clontarf Cricket Club Ground, Dublin on Friday. Ireland come into this series on the back of a 0-3 T20I series defeat against South Africa. On the other hand, Zimbabwe suffered a 1-2 T20I series defeat Bangladesh.

The two teams have played each other three times in the shortest format of the game until now. Ireland hold a slight advantage with their 2-1 record in these three matches. The two teams split a three-match T20I series with a 1-1 score-line when Zimbabwe last visited Ireland’s shores in 2019.

IRE vs ZIM Dream 11 Fantasy Tips 2021

Although Ireland didn’t bat well against South Africa, they are expected to score runs against Zimbabwe. In fact, both the teams have pretty impressive batting line-ups. It will perhaps be Zimbabwe’s more rounded bowling attack that will decide this game.

IRE 2021 Captain (Andy Balbirnie)

Ireland skipper Andrew Balbirnie is an elegant batsman who will look to anchor the inning. He made 55 runs from three T20I matches against South Africa last month.

Southpaw Craig Ervine has been named as the Zimbabwe captain for this tour. He returns to the team after missing a lot of matches this year.

Regis Chakabva could be a solid candidate to bag the ‘Man of the Match’ award. He has looked like a transformed player ever since batting higher up the order. Chakabva made 105 runs from three T20Is against Bangladesh in July.
