IRE vs PAK Today Match Prediction – Team Analysis
Ireland (IRE)
In their recent series against Afghanistan in the UAE, Ireland faced a tough 2-1 defeat.
Andrew Balbirnie showcased his talent with an impressive innings of 77 runs in the opening game, leading Ireland to a victory. He’s a strong contender to excel as Ireland’s top batter in the upcoming match. Meanwhile, Mark Adair emerges as the standout bowler for Ireland, ready to offer a significant challenge for Pakistan, particularly with his performance with the new ball. Supporting him to secure over 1.5 wickets in the game is a smart move.
Ireland kicked off the series with a commanding five-wicket win in the first T20I, setting the tone perfectly. Despite facing a strong opponent, the hosts remained calm and executed their game plan perfectly. Ireland’s disciplined bowling restricted Pakistan to 182-6, followed by a successful chase with five wickets to spare, led by Andrew Balbirnie’s impressive 77 runs.
Given their convincing performance in the initial match, Ireland is advised to maintain the same playing XI without any changes. Their united teamwork was clear in the victory, and it’s unlikely they’ll make changes to a winning combination.

Pakistan (PAK)
Pakistan recently faced New Zealand at home but couldn’t secure a series win, settling for a 2-2 draw after losing two games.
Babar Azam managed to score 57 runs in the first match. Despite not being at his best, Babar’s consistent track record suggests he could deliver again. He’s a solid choice as Pakistan’s top batter. Shaheen Afridi is a strong candidate to be Pakistan’s best bowler because he’s really good at getting wickets early in the game.
Pakistan’s loss to a less strong New Zealand side at home should raise concerns. While they may claim to be experimenting ahead of the World Cup, their lineup in the first T20I was nearly full-strength.
Pakistan have mentioned that they will try different things during the series to find the best team for the T20 World Cup. They might give Abbas Afridi a break to include Haris Rauf in the playing XI.
