MATCH: Afghanistan vs Ireland
DATE: Mar 07, 2024
TIME: 17:00 IST / 11:30 GMT
VENUE: Sharjah Cricket Stadium – Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
TOURNAMENT: AFG vs IRE2024
The clash will follow after Ireland’s historic six-wicket triumph over Afghanistan in the one-off Test match earlier in the tour, providing them with a psychological advantage as they enter the limited-overs format. Paul Stirling will lead the Irish side, while Afghanistan, eager to bounce back from their recent 3-0 ODI series defeat against Sri Lanka, will be captained by Hashmatullah Shahidi.
The inclusion of star spinner Rashid Khan in the ODI squad adds a potent dimension to Afghanistan’s bowling attack. Rashid, who has been absent from international cricket since the ODI World Cup in 2023 due to injury, if gets a chance, is expected to play a pivotal role in the team’s quest for a turnaround.
Sharjah Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:
Sharjah Cricket Stadium, with its short boundaries, typically features a slow pitch. Despite the pitch’s sluggish nature, the proximity of the boundaries has allowed batters to amass significant runs on this ground. Therefore, the captain winning the toss might opt to chase.
