Ireland will take on hosts Zimbabwe in the first T20 match on Thursday in Harare. Here are the live streaming, venue, squad and other details of the ZIM Vs IRE match
Ireland men's cricket team will take on Zimbabwe in the first match of the three-game T20I bilateral series in Harare on Thursday. This is the second time this year that the Irish team is visiting the African country for a bilateral series. (Cricket News)
Zimbabwe cricket team recently failed to qualify for the T20 World Cup 2024 at the African Qualifiers. Only two teams from the African region could go for the international showpiece and Namibia along with Uganda claimed those two spots. Sikandar Raza-led Zimbabwe team was thrashed by these two teams in the round-robin stage. The Zimbabwe team was not part of the recently concluded ODI World Cup in India because they failed to qualify for that earlier this year.
Ireland's star batter Paul Stirling will be leading the side in white-ball cricket after Andrew Balbirnie stepped down from captaincy duties. The Irish team have some seriously talented players including Curtis Campher, Josh Little Harry Tector and Craig Young.
Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza is in fine form and would like to continue that when his team take on the Irish challenge. Sean Williams, Craig Ervine, and Wessly Madhevere are some players who can change the game single-handedly for Zimbabwe. Their form could play a crucial role in the series.
Head To Head Record
Zimbabwe and Ireland have clashed against each other for 11 times in T20 internationals. Ireland have won six matches while Zimbabwe triumphed on five occasions.
