IRE vs AFG Dream11 Prediction, 2nd T20I: Half-centuries from Andrew Balbirnie and Lorcan Tucker helped Ireland to a seven-wicket win in the five-match T20I series against Afghanistan.
IRE vs AFG: Ireland will lock horns against Afghanistan in the 2nd T20I of the Afghanistan tour of Ireland, 2022 on Thursday, August 11, 2022, at Civil Service Cricket Club, Belfast.
Ireland clinched their first home T20 International win of the season by beating Afghanistan by seven wickets in Belfast in the series opener.
Opting to bat first, Afghanistan posted a total of 168-7 courtesy opener Usman Ghani who struck 59 off 42 balls and Ibrahim Zadran scoring 29 runs off 18 balls.
The hosts, in reply, chased down the target with one ball remaining. Andy Balbirnie (51), Paul Stirling and wicketkeeper-batter Lorcan Tucker (50) were the major contributors with the bat.
For Afghanistan, it was an off day for their bowlers. Even spin wizard Rashid Khan failed to pick up a wicket and went for 25 in 4 overs while Mohammad Nabi and Mujeeb ur Rahman were very ordinary with the ball.
Heading into the second T20I, while Afghanistan will look to level the series, the home side will be eager to clinch the series by winning this game.
