SCO vs IRE Preview
- Paul Stirling, Andrew Balbirnie, and Lorcan Tucker make comprise Ireland’s potent batting order.
- In the 11 games played between the two teams, Scotland has only twice defeated Ireland, so this will be on their thoughts.
- Scotland’s batsmen appeared rusty in their most recent game, which may cause the team some worry.
Scotland and Ireland square off in the 7th game of the 2022 T20 World Cup on Wednesday in the late afternoon at Bellerive Oval in Hobart. In their opening match on Monday, Scotland shocked everyone by defeating West Indies by a score of 42 runs. Ireland fell short of Zimbabwe in their opening match by 31 runs. In Tasmania, the match begins at 15:30 local time.
On Monday, Scotland achieved one of their most dramatic victories, and they will be quite confident going into this match. They appeared to be on track to qualify for the Super 12 Stage again in 2022 after doing so last year.
Ireland only had one victory at the 2021 T20 World Cup, and after one match, they appear unlikely to move on to the next round. Even though they have a good history versus Scotland, this game will be extremely challenging.
SCO vs IRE Weather Report

SCO vs IRE Pitch Report
Although it is a solid track for batting, this pitch also offers something for pace and spin spinners. No higher than 165–170 is the par score we anticipate.
Scotland Team News & Probable Playing XIs
If Scotland changed their starting lineup following their victory on Monday afternoon, it would come as a great shock. Because no players are injured or unable to participate, Brandon McMullen, Chris Sole, Hamza Tahir, and Craig Wallace continue to watch from the sidelines.

Ireland Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Ireland chose the identical starting lineup from their August IT20 to play against Afghanistan for Monday’s T20 World Cup 2022 match against Zimbabwe despite the fact that it has been two months since that game. We anticipate the same starting lineup for this matchup because the Ireland management is fully aware of who their strongest team is.

Scotland is the favorite to win this match.
Even though the game is being played in Australia, there will be a little extra local derby tension because the two nations are so close geographically. While Scotland will still be overjoyed following their victory against the West Indies, Ireland will be sad that they lost to Zimbabwe. We are betting on Scotland to win its next two games.
