PREVIEW
Ireland and West Indies will face each other in a three-match Twenty20 International series, which kicks off on Thursday at Bready Cricket Club.
This series offers Shai Hope’s West Indies a chance to recover after a challenging tour of England, where they lost all six white-ball matches against the home side. Although Ireland may not be as strong an opponent as England, the West Indies will not underestimate them. The team, captained by Paul Stirling, recently proved their competitiveness by drawing a three-match One-Day International series against the Windies 1-1.
With the T20I head-to-head record between Ireland and West Indies evenly matched at 3-3, the series is expected to deliver thrilling moments as both teams appear to be evenly matched in the shortest format.
