Ireland To Win, 1.30
Ireland has lost 7 of the 10 matches it has played here
Ireland’s recent record at home hasn’t been the best as it has lost 6 of the last 8 such games
West Indies has a stronger batting lineup
Mark Adair to pick up Over 1.5 wickets
Mark Adair has been one of Ireland’s best bowlers in the T20 format. He has picked up at least 2 wickets in 5 of his last 9 innings. He has picked up at least 3 wickets in 4 of the 5 matches played at this venue and we are backing him to bowl a good spell.
Shai Hope to score Over 23.5 runs
Shai Hope is in good form of late. He has scored at least 45 runs in 3 of his last 5 T20 matches, including a half-century. We are therefore another good inning from him.

Ireland hasn’t been in the best of forms recently and on top of it, the weather has played a spoilsport in 3 of their last 4 matches. Nevertheless, the team will have fond memories of their previous encounter against the West Indies, when they knocked out the opponents from the T20 World Cup.
The biggest news for the home team is undoubtedly the return of Mark Adair. He missed the ODI series last month due to an injury and his return will bolster the seam department as he joins Graham Hume and Barry McCarthy. Liam McCarthy has received his first international T20 call but is unlikely to find a place in the playing XI.
Benjamin White remains the only specialist spinner. Gavin Hoey has also received his maiden T20 call-up. Coming to the batting, Paul Stirling remains the key for Ireland. He is the leading run-scorer for the team in international cricket and is likely to open the batting alongside Ross Adair.
In addition, the team will depend on the likes of Lorcan Tucker, Harry Tector, and George Dockrell to score runs during the middle overs.

Fresh off its humiliating loss against England in the ODIs and T20s, West Indies will look to rebound and get some of its lost confidence back. While Ireland isn’t as strong as England, the visitors will be wary of them given their past record.
Shai Hope’s T20 captaincy wasn’t off to the best of starts but his personal form has been decent as he has scored at least 45 runs in each of his last two games. He adds stability to the middle order which is further strengthened with the return of Keacy Carty.
They will be joined by Rovman Powell and Sherfane Rutherford. The batting is likely to be headlined by Evin Lewis and Johnson Charles. While both of them are immensely talented batsmen, they need to perform better as a pair and give the visitors a solid start.
Coming to the bowling, the West Indies is likely to go with a seam-heavy attack consisting of Alzarri Joseph, Matthew Forde, and Jason Holder while Gudakesh Motie could be the specialist spinner.

6 of the last 10 matches played here were won while batting first. In half of those games, the captain winning the toss opted to bat first and that might be the way to go in this match as well.
The pitch here is likely to favor the fast bowlers, thanks to the green covering on the surface. There has been plenty of rain at this venue over the last few days and there will be a lot of moisture, allowing the ball to move off the seam. The batsmen need to settle down before playing the big shots.
While the average first-inning score here is 105, the team batting first will look to score around 160 runs. The weather is likely to remain overcast with rain throughout the day and we may see yet another short match or even a washout.
We are backing the West Indies to win this match. They are a talented side with plenty of quality players who can help them turn things around. Their power in the batting lineup is very dangerous and makes them the team to back.
