Probable Top Performers from IRE vs ENG

Probable Best Batter: Phil Salt

Phil Salt has been in blistering form in T20 cricket. The wicketkeeper-batter finished as the highest run-getter in the recently-concluded series against South Africa. Salt smashed a 46-ball 89 in the first T20I, hitting 10 fours and four sixes.

Probable Best Bowler: Adil Rashid

Adil Rashid is going to play a key role in the third T20I, especially through the middle overs. His truckloads of experience will come in handy against the attack-minded Irish batters. Ireland would like to take the attack to Rashid as they did in the first T20I, and this could play into the Bradford-born’s hands.
