Match: Ireland vs New Zealand, 2nd ODI | New Zealand tour of Ireland

IRE vs NZ Preview
- The fact that New Zealand has defeated Ireland in all five of its one-day international matches will boost their confidence.
- In the most recent game, New Zealand’s bottom middle-order showed good form, strengthening their batting.
- Ireland’s weakness against a powerful batting lineup is its lack of depth in the bowling department.
On Tuesday, The Village in Malahide will host the second One Day International in the three-match series between Ireland and New Zealand. The first game was a true classic that came down to the last ball and one wicket before the visitors prevailed. As a result, there is a lot of excitement for the second game around the world. Tuesday morning at 10:45 local time, this ODI begins.
It will be intriguing to see how Ireland responds in this game after coming so close to defeating New Zealand in the ODI on Sunday. They will either be inspired by the performance and step up their game, or they will be shocked that they lost.
New Zealand remains one of the world’s top white-ball teams, and they have the depth to back it up. On Tuesday, they’ll be anxious to cross the finish line as quickly as possible.

IRE vs NZ Match Toss Prediction
Large scores have been recorded in the last five ODI matches. The team that wins the toss will likely choose to bowl first because the weather is predicted to be challenging for this game.
IRE vs NZ Pitch Report
As quick bowlers will get a chance to move the ball and make it difficult to score runs, the batting conditions will be more difficult than they were in the previous game. In these circumstances, the team batting first would be content with 280 runs or more on the scoreboard.
Ireland Team News & Probable Playing XIs
On Sunday, the host team put on a very impressive performance on the field and came very near to achieving what would have been their most illustrious victory on Irish soil. Simi Singh bowled 10 efficient overs despite being the only player without a wicket. In this ODI, we anticipate seeing the same starting lineup.

New Zealand is the favourite to win this match.
Everyone predicted that Ireland would give New Zealand a few scares, but none thought they would enter the game’s final over as clear favourites to win the series’ first game. They could not cross the finish line, and we believe that was a crucial decision for the rest of the season. We expect New Zealand to triumph once more.
