Zimbabwe vs Ireland
1st ODI Match Prediction & Tips
Time: 18 Jan, 12:45 PM (IST)
Series: 1st ODI Match
Venue: Harare Sports Club – Harare, Zimbabwe
ZIM vs IRE Dream11 Prediction:
- Craig Ervine scored 54 on Sunday and has hit three centuries in this format. The captain is our tip for Zimbabwe’s highest run scorer against Ireland. Ryan Burl has been in fantastic form in Harare and took 5-10 in Zimbabwe’s last ODI. The leg-spinner is well worth backing as Zimbabwe’s top wicket taker in this match.
- Paul Stirling only knows one way to play cricket and that is to attack the opposition bowlers. He has 13 ODI hundreds and is our pick for Ireland’s highest run scorer in this game. Josh Little has 95 international wickets and had an impressive 2022. The 23 year old quick bowler is a strong choice for Ireland’s top wicket taker on Wednesday.
- Ryan Burl was the leading wicket taker during the IT2-0 series and, although it is a different format, he has had plenty of success in ODIs. We recommend backing him to take over 1.5 wickets in this clash.

Weather & Pitch Report:
⛅ Weather:
There will be a constant threat of thunderstorms in the second half of this game although there is a chance that they will pass Harare by. It will be cloudy and humid throughout.
🏟️ Pitch:
We expect the pitch to behave in a very similar manner to what we saw during the shorter-format series. Both teams should be aiming for a total over 320 on a surface which will turn.
Toss Prediction:
The teams chose to field first when they won the toss in the IT20s and, with wet weather expected before play starts, we predict that the captains will want to bowl first in this game.

Winning Chances:
The IT20 series was very entertaining with the result still not confirmed until the final over of the final game. We expect an equally close set of games in these ODIs and both teams have players capable of spending large periods of time at the crease and making big scores. We are predicting a high scoring game to start the series and expect Zimbabwe, with home advantage, to win the first ODI.
Zimbabwe are our favorites to beat Ireland at the odds of 1.54
ZIM Key Players:
Craig Ervine
The captain missed the tour of Australia but was in strong form at this venue during the IT20s. He hit 96 runs, including a half-century on Sunday, in his last two innings.
Gary Ballance
The former England international missed the last two IT20s with mild concussion but is expected back for this match. He has scored two half-centuries in ODI cricket.
Ryan Burl
The all-rounder was the pick of Zimbabwe’s bowlers during the IT20 series. He will be looking forward to bowling more overs in this format after taking seven wickets across the three IT20s.
IRE Key Players:
Paul Stirling
the right-handed opener hit a 103-ball 120 in his last ODI against New Zealand. He is in good form ahead of this match after scoring 54 runs from 38 balls in an ILT20 match.
Harry Tector
23 year old batting all-rounder has an excellent ODI batting record and has been strong form with the ball on this tour. He already has five wickets at the Harare Sports Club.
Josh Little
the left-arm pace bowler is aggressive and often concedes more runs than most in this format. However, he is a regular wicket taker with best figures of 4-39 in ODIs.
ZIM vs IRE Team Forms:
ZIM Team Form:
Zimbabwe secured a famous victory over a full-strength Australia team in their last ODI but had lost their previous six games in this format.
IRE Team Form:
Although Ireland lost their last three ODIs to New Zealand, two of those defeats were by margins of one run and one wicket. They have become a reliable team in this format.
