Possible XI: Pakistan vs Ireland
Let us now take you through the possible playing XIs for the teams to help you analyse the Pakistan vs Ireland best odds.
Pakistan do not have much alternatives to choose from for the next game. Since the upcoming game is inconsequential, they might make a few changes. Abbas Afridi is yet to play a game and he is likely to replace one of the four pacers in the team. Azam Khan faced a lot of criticism following his knock against India and he would want to get one last chance.
Ireland have not been convincing until now in the tournament. They began with a defeat to India before losing to Canada. Their skipper Paul Stirling would want some positives from his team before bowling out of the World Cup.
Pakistan: Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Saim Ayub/Azam Khan, Babar Azam (c), Fakhar Zaman, Usman Khan, Shadab Khan, Imad Wasim, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf/Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir
Ireland: Andrew Balbirnie, Paul Stirling (c), Lorcan Tucker (wk), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Joshua Little, Craig Young
Pakistan vs Ireland: Head-to-Head
Pakistan and Ireland have faced each other 4 times since they first met back in 2009. Pakistan have a 3-1 lead over their opponents. In their previous meeting on May 14, 2024, Pakistan beat Ireland by 6 wickets at Castle Avenue in Dublin. Shaheen Shah Afridi won the Player of the Match award after he finished with impressive figures of 4-0-14-3. Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam scored 56 and 75 respectively.
Pakistan favourites to win
Pakistan will go into the game as favourites with odds of 1.350 on 22Bet.
Pakistan will go into the game with the upper hand, although Ireland would also fancy their chances to beat a team that has floundered. Last month, Ireland defeated Pakistan in one of the T20Is and also came close to winning the bilateral series. Although Pakistan would start the upcoming match as the favourites, one should not raise eyebrows if Ireland go on to beat them.
If you believe, Canada have any chance of winning, go to Parimatch and 22Bet where the odds are 3.470.
