WI vs IRE Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report and Injury Update for 2nd ODI

Preview:

West Indies will take on Ireland in the 2nd ODI of the series. The hosts West Indies were too good in the 1st ODI of the series as they wrapped up a 24-run win over Ireland to take a 1-0 lead. Sparkling innings from Shamarh Brooks and Kieron Pollard and later combined heroics from the bowlers helped them to claim the victory. The hosts will look to take the series with prior one game left.

Ireland, on the other hand, fought extremely hard in the 1st ODI of the series, though they fell short of the target by 24 runs. Andy Balbirnie deserves credit for his influential batting in the run-chase. They must win this match to stay alive in the contest.
