IRE vs NZ Preview

The fact that New Zealand has defeated Ireland in all four of their one-day international matches gives them confidence.
Ireland has lost six of its last seven ODI matches and weighs heavily on their thoughts.
Ireland has a dismal track record at this location and has only had one victory in their last 10 one-day international matches (ODIs)

The first of three ODIs between Ireland and New Zealand is played at The Village in Malahide. The hosts haven’t participated in this format since January’s illustrious 2-1 victory over the West Indies. In March, New Zealand defeated the Netherlands 3-0. On Sunday morning at 10:30, the first ODI will begin.

Ireland has played well in one-day international cricket and competed fiercely with India in their last IT20 match. They benefit from playing at home, but New Zealand will be a formidable opponent.

Even without some of their best and most seasoned players, New Zealand has a formidable team travelling to Ireland. They will enter this match as heavy favourites, according to most analysts.
