Ireland vs Afghanistan 5th T20i Match Prediction
Match: IRE vs AFG T20i Match Prediction
Time: 17 Aug, 08:00 PM (IST)
Series: 5th T20i Match
Venue: Civil Service Cricket Club – Dublin
IRE vs AFG Dream11 Prediction:
- Andy Balbirnie has delivered runs at a high strike-rate in the first, second and fourth games of the series. He has outscored his opening partner, Paul Stirling, and we are backing Balbirnie to be Ireland’s highest run scorer in this match. Josh Little went wicketless on Monday but will benefit from a 20 overs a-side match. The 22 year old is our tip for Ireland’s top wicket taker on Wednesday.
- Opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz is one of the most exciting young batters in world cricket. He attacks from the first ball and he is our pick for Afghanistan’s highest run scorer against Ireland. With the ball, Rashid Khan took 2-21 from three overs in the fourth IT20 and the spinner is well worth backing as Afghanistan’s top wicket taker in this match.
- Najibullah Zadran has been in excellent form with the bat. We recommend backing him to score over 20.5 runs in this clash.

IRE vs AFG Team News:
IRE Team News:
Curtis Campher and Graham Hume made way in the Ireland XI with pace bowler Barry McCarthy and spinner Simi Singh coming in for Monday’s game. Singh was the most economical of the Irish bowlers and McCarthy dismissed Rahmaullah Gurbaz so we expect them both to retain their spots in the side.
AFG Team News:
There were two changes for Afghanistan ahead of the fourth IT20. Usman Ghani and Noor Ahmad were left out with Fareed Ahmad and Sharafuddin Ashraf coming into the team. We expect the visitors to be unchanged as they look to make it three wins in a row to take the series.

Final Verdict
Afghanistan are favourites to beat Ireland
IRE Key Players:
Andy Balbirnie:
The captain understood the importance of quick runs at the top of the order in the 11 overs per side game. He ended with a strike rate of 300 after hitting 15 from five balls.
Lorcan Tucker:
The keeper-batter was not at his fluent best in the shortened game but has had an excellent summer. He will be looking to sign off with another half-century.
Josh Little:
The left-arm opening bowler often takes his wickets in his returning overs in the middle and latter part of an innings. He only had two overs on Monday but we expect him to be back in the wickets in this game.
AFG Key Players:
Rahmanullah Gurbaz:
The young keeper batter will have been disappointed to last only 13 balls on Monday but his quick-fire 24 runs got his team off to a brilliant start.
Rashid Khan:
The world class spinner finally got his account up and running for the series with the dismissals of Gareth Delany and Barry McCarthy.
Naveen ul-Haq:
The right arm medium fast bowler has been Afghanistan’s most consistent bowler in this series. He has taken seven wickets across the four games.
