Chamika Karunaratne picked up 3 crucial wickets in the 1^st ODI against Zimbabwe despite going for 6.9 runs an over. He can throw kitchen sink at everything at the death overs.

Even though Maheesh Theekshana went wicketless in the 1^st ODI, he bowled quite well, and conceded only 40 runs in his full quota of 10 overs. He is still a good pick for your fantasy teams.

ZIM

Craig Ervine didn’t go big in the 1^st ODI as he was dismissed for just 9 runs. Zimbabwe skipper just needs to spend more time at the crease in order to get going.

Sean Williams bought up his 5th ODI century and also surpassed the 4000 run-mark in the 1^st ODI of the series. He is a big match player and hopeful of repeating similar performances.

Regis Chakabva put up a solid foundation for Zimbabwe in the 1^st ODI, his knock of 72 runs from 81 balls set the tone up for the visitors. He is expected to deliver the same in the 2^nd ODI as well.

Zimbabwe Coach Lalchand Rajput Tests Positive For Covid-19 At The Start of Sri Lanka Tour

Published on January 11, 2022

Zimbabwe coach Lalchand Rajput has tested positive for Covid-19 ahead of Sri Lanka and he will miss at least the first two games of the series. The ODI series between Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe will begin on January 16 at Pallekele. However the 60-year old hasn’t shown any symptoms but he has been kept under observation.

Zimbabwe Coach Lalchand Rajput Tests Positive For Covid-19 At The Start of Sri Lanka Tour 1 — Lalchand Rajput

“We are doing some routine tests and he will be able to go back to a hotel, there will be a 10-day quarantine period which means he will miss the first two matches.” Arjuna de Silva, a Sri Lankan sports doctor, told AFP.

Rajput will remain in isolation for the next 10 days while the rest of the Zimbabwe squad returned with negative results. Meanwhile, the whole Zimbabwe team travelled to the venue to play 3-match series against Sri Lanka. All three matches will be played at Pallekele.

Lalchand Rajput has been coaching Zimbabwe since 2018

Rajput was appointed Zimbabwe coach in 2018. Zimbabwe hasn’t had a great run of late in ODIs. They drew the series against Ireland by 1-1 while they were whitewashed by 0-3 against Bangladesh in July 2021. However, they are coming here after winning a T20I series against Scotland by 2-1 but they lost the series against Ireland by 2-3 at home. They also conceded another home series against Bangladesh by 1-2 in the same season.

Zimbabwe can take some confidence with the fact they last year won a super game in ODIs in Pakistan. Also in 2017 when they travelled here for a 5-match, the visitors won the series by 3-2 under the leadership of Graeme Cremer. Overall in 13 matches, Zimbabwe won only 3 ODIs against Sri Lanka in their backyard.

Meanwhile Sri Lanka camp has also hit by covid-19 as Avishka Fernando has been tested positive for Covid-19. Though the ban on Kusal Mendis, Danushka Gunathilaka and Niroshan Dickwella has been overturned and they will be available for selection in this series. The trio was banned in the last England tour when they breached a bio bubble protocol in Durham. However, Danushka Gunathilaka announced the retirement from test cricket, hours after his ban was overturned.

Scotland vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Dream11 Team, Playing XI, Pitch Report, and Injury Update of 2nd T20I match.

SCO vs ZIM 2nd T20I Match Preview:

Zimbabwe will take on Scotland in the second T20I match of the three-match T20I series at Grange Cricket Club, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh.

Richie Berrington smashed an unbeaten 82 before Safyaan Sharif got four wickets to help Scotland take a 1-0 lead with a seven-run win over Zimbabwe in the opening T20I. Set 142, Zimbabwe were struggling at 58 for 4 in the 11th over but managed to get close because of Milton Shumba’s unbeaten 45. However, Sharif defended 14 in the final over to ensure the hosts picked up the early series lead.

After Kyle Coetzer chose to bat, Scotland were rocked early and soon found themselves reeling at 30 for 4 inside the powerplay. Chatara bagged two of the top four to fall – Coetzer and MacLeod – while Wellington Masakadza and Richard Ngarava also helped the side make a good start. Matthew Cross and Richie Berrington steadied the innings with their 45-run stand but it was the latter’s knock that helped Scotland put up a fighting score.

Just like Scotland, Zimbabwe too had to cope with early wickets. Sharif removed Wesley Madhevere and Tadiwanashe Marumani with just five on the board to ensure the hosts kept believing. Regis Chakabva and Craig Ervine took the side past 50 but two quick wickets left them hurting.

Sean Williams and Milton Shumba made 54 to rebuild the innings and Zimbabwe, from being 112 for 4 at one stage, slipped to 125 for 7. While Shumba was still at the crease, the wickets meant the task of getting 19 from the last two overs suddenly became much tougher. After just five in the penultimate over from Chris Sole, the onus was on Shumba to score the 14 required for the win. Sharif was welcomed with a boundary but dismissed Masakadza on the third to leave Zimbabwe needing 9 off 3. Shumba ran a bye on the second ball and, in hindsight, that proved to be fatal.

Soon after the Ireland innings rain came down and even after two inspections, the officials deemed the field was not fit for play. Ireland lost the opening ODI and will now look to bounce back in the final of the three-match series and pick up crucial ODI Super League points.

Put in to bat, William Porterfield (67 off 100) and Paul Stirling (31 off 71) gave the team a steady but cautious start. Their opening stand lasted 22.3 overs and fetched the team 82. Sean Williams dismissed Stirling first but Andrew Balbirnie (40) injected some momentum into the innings and scored 69 for the second wicket with Porterfield.

Richard Ngarava, who bagged three wickets, dented the hosts with the wicket of the Ireland captain, who was followed by Porterfield nine balls later in the 37th over. Harry Tector (55 off 42), George Dockrell (28 off 19) and Lorcan Tucker (32 off 20) were key architects of the late push Ireland managed. They scored 100 in the final ten overs and 57 in the last five to present Zimbabwe with a stiff challenge.

Ngarava, however, helped Zimbabwe do a bit of damage control with wickets of Porterfield, Balbirnie and Tector. Ireland were 267 for 4 in the 49th over but soon slipped to 277 for 8 and couldn’t quite inflict more damage in the final eight deliveries. Three wickets fell in the final over – two courtesy run outs – before Craig Young finished the innings with a last ball boundary.

Ireland vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Dream11 Team, Playing XI, Pitch Report, and Injury Update of 2nd ODI match.

IRE vs ZIM 2nd ODI Match Preview:

Zimbabwe will face Ireland in the 2nd ODI match of the three-match ODI series at Civil Service Cricket Club, Belfast.

Sikandar Raza’s late blitz and a clinical bowling performance helped Zimbabwe bag their second win in the ICC ODI Super League. Set 267, Ireland were kept to 228 as the visitors picked up a 1-0 lead in the three-match series with a 38-run victory.

Ireland, however, will look back at the contest as a missed opportunity as they went from being 163 for 2 in the 35th over to 218 for 8 by the 47th. William Porterfield (75) and Paul Stirling (32) started with a half-century stand but two quick wickets of Stirling and Andrew Balbirnie helped Zimbabwe stage a comeback in the game. Harry Tector stroked a brisk half-century, and made 71 with Porterfield, to set up the chase.

However, Luke Jongwe dismissed Porterfield to start Zimbabwe’s slide. George Dockrell (11), Simi Singh (3), Lorcan Tucker (14) and Andy McBrine (2) couldn’t quite cope up with the pressure of the asking rate and fell in quick succession to hurt Ireland’s chances.

Earlier, handy contributions from Craig Ervine, Brendan Taylor, and Raza lifted Zimbabwe to a challenging total despite the spinners giving away just 48 from their 20 overs. The Zimbabwe openers made a nervy start as Regis Chakabva was dropped on the second delivery. On the next ball, Ireland challenged an lbw appeal against Taylor but the batsman was saved courtesy umpire’s call. Chakabva fell for 2 but Taylor and Ervine made 71 for the second wicket to get the innings going.

Simi dismissed Taylor for 49 before Dion Myers huffed and puffed his way to seven of 22. Myers fell to McBrine as Zimbabwe slipped to 101 for 3 in 20 overs. Sean Williams and Ervine steadied the innings but there was another wobble as the visitors again lost the position of strength with two quick wickets.

Wesley Madhevere and Raza collaborated to score 44 for the sixth wicket in the 33 deliveries they faced but Madhevere was dismissed for 19. Raza’s assault meant Zimbabwe were able to score 54 runs in the last five overs, with 24 scored in the last two, to ensure the bowlers had a competitive total to work with.

Ireland vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Dream11 Team, Playing XI, Pitch Report, and Injury Update of 5th T20I match.

IRE vs ZIM 5th T20I Match Preview:

Zimbabwe will face Ireland in the last T20I match of the five-match T20I series at Bready Cricket Club, Bready, Northern Ireland.

With the series in the bag already at 3-1, Ireland would aim to extend their winning streak against Zimbabwe in the final T20I of the five-match series before they head to UAE for the 2021 World Cup.

Hosts Ireland turned it around spectacularly after losing four games on the trot – three in the preceding series to South Africa and the opener of this to their visitors when they failed to overhaul a modest 117 in Dublin. It was their batting letting them down time and again, and also earning the team a bad reputation of being nervy chasers.

But with World Cup on the horizon, the batting department turned the tide quickly as Ireland leveled the series by chasing down 152 comfortably with an over-and-a-half and seven wickets to spare, before posting two formidable totals in excess of 170 in the next two games to clinch the series.

At the heart of this turnaround was Paul Stirling, continuing his spectacular form The Hundred final to notch up a scintillating unbeaten 115 off just 75 balls in game 3. Contributions from the rest have come steadily since, while the bowling has been on point, causing panic and collapses in the Zimbabwean line-up, aided with the cushion of stronger totals.

Much like Ireland prior to this, Zimbabwe too, have been let down by their batting since the series opener where they dramatically defended a low score for an early lead. The batsmen have been guilty of not applying themselves enough and falling to poor, unwarranted strokes in the face of scoreboard pressure. That pressure has, in part, been induced by a listless bowling show allowing the Irish to get away and leave them with little chance at the halfway stage.

IRE vs ZIM 5th T20I Match Pitch Report:

The wicket has favored batting at this venue if Ireland’s strong show in the last two games is any evidence. The hosts have liked batting first, and could likely stick to their preferences especially with a slight chance of some rain later in the evening. The weather otherwise is likely to be in the 18-19 degree range with clouds having around for most of the day.

IRE vs ZIM 5th T20I Match Probable Playing XIs:

Ireland: Paul Stirling, Kevin O Brien, Andrew Balbirnie (c), Shane Getkate, George Dockrell, William McClintock, Neil Rock(wk), Simi Singh, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Joshua Little

Zimbabwe: Wesley Madhevere, Tadiwanashe Marumani, Regis Chakabva(wk), Dion Myers, Craig Ervine(c), Milton Shumba, Luke Jongwe, Donald Tiripano, Wellington Masakadza, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava

Top Picks for IRE vs ZIM Dream11 Prediction and Fantasy Cricket Tips:

Ireland

Paul Stirling is the highest run-getter in the series so far. He has scored 215 runs in the four matches so far. In the 4^th T20I, he scored 39 runs. He can be a good pick for this match.

Kevin O’Brien has scored 141 runs in the series so far. He scored 41 runs in the last match. He can be another good pick for this game and he is expected to continue the same form in the last match of the series.

Craig Young got two early breakthroughs by dismissing the Zimbabwean openers. In 3 matches in this series, he has picked up 3 wickets.

Simi Singh is a useful all-rounder who can float anywhere in the order and has the ability to slow down things with his off-breaks. He has scalped 25 wickets and 217 runs in his T20I career. He turned the match in favor of Ireland in the 1^st T20I. When other batsmen fumbled in the run-chase, he gave some sort of hope for the hosts. Initially, he picked up 2 big wickets. and later on, scored 28* runs from 22 deliveries.

Mark Adair scalped 4 wickets haul in 4th game to make a total of 7 in two matches in this series.

Shane Getkate is the highest wicket-taker in the series so far. He has scalped 8 wickets in the series, and in the last match as well, he picked up 2 wickets. He can be a good player to bank on.

Zimbabwe

Craig Ervine will lead Zimbabwe in this series. The 36-year-old southpaw has played 26 T20Is and has scored 536 runs at an average of 22.33 which comprises three fifty-plus scores. Started well in the 1^st T20I. He was looking fairly comfortable until he played a false shot and got dismissed for 17 runs from 12 deliveries. Smashed 33 runs in 18 balls in the last game. Played an innings of 28 runs to make his tally 93 in this series.

Regis Chakabva looked more convincing than any other batter in the 1^st T20I. He accumulated 47 runs from 28 deliveries. Chakabva averages 38 in the last 4 T20Is. In 4 matches in this series, Chakabva has scored 75 runs at a strike rate of 142.5.

Ryan Burl’s contributions with both bat and ball in the 1^st T20I played a major part in the win for the visitors. Burl has picked up 5 wickets at an economy of 5.75 and has even notched up 49 runs with the bat. Scored 26 runs and picked up a wicket in the third match.

Richard Ngarava deserves all the credit he is getting for his stunning effort to defend 6 runs in the final over of the match in the 1^st T20I. He conceded only 17 runs in his full quota of 4 overs. Picked up two wickets in this series.

Published on September 2, 2021

Ireland vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Dream11 Team, Playing XI, Pitch Report, and Injury Update of 4th T20I match.

IRE vs ZIM 4th T20I Match Preview:

Zimbabwe will face Ireland in the 4th T20I of the five-match T20I series at Bready Cricket Club, Bready, Northern Ireland.

Ireland has managed to take a 2-1 lead in the T20 series against Zimbabwe and could win the series with a win in this match. Zimbabwe will be disappointed at its performance in the previous match. It was completely outclassed by Ireland and that is not something that it will be happy about.

Paul Stirling is considered to be the best batsman ever produced by Ireland and he showed just why once more in the previous match. He hit his maiden T20 international century and helped his team to a massive win. 115 not out with 8 sixes in the inning is worth remembering and we have no doubt it will give him a lot of confidence.

Ireland will be hoping for a similarly decisive contribution from one of Stirling, Balbirnie, or O’Brien in the upcoming matches as well. Ireland’s batting is a bit frail after the top-3 and players like Shane Getake, George Dockrell, and William McClintock are still relatively untested at the international level.

It was great to see Mark Adair and Joshua Little in the team for Ireland once more. These two have helped elevate the level of the Ireland bowling attack significantly and with Simi Singh finding a consistent place in the side, Ireland’s bowling is much better than it used to be.

Zimbabwe was blown away in the previous match by Paul Stirling. The bowlers just did not have any answers. Without Blessing Muzarabani, the Zimbabwe bowling does not have the edge it needs to make early inroads. It is almost waiting for mistakes rather than forcing anything to happen. Ryan Burl has been the best bowler for Zimbabwe in this series and that is not a very good thing to be honest.

There were a few changes made to the batting order in the previous match but the pressure of a stiff target was always going to tea its toll. Wesley Madhevere is someone capable of scoring quickly at the top of the order but he has failed to give Zimbabwe the kind of starts needed. Craig Ervine was the only batsman that seemed to find the middle of the bat and looked in some kind of form. He may be a good option for the Top Batsman in this next match.

Ryan Burl is also someone who has got a start in most matches and is in decent form.

Overall, though, Zimbabwe’s team lacks depth in every facet of the game.

Top Picks for IRE vs ZIM Dream11 Prediction and Fantasy Cricket Tips:

IRE

Paul Stirling knows how to play the new ball. He was well set for a big score in the 1^st T20I but got out for 24 after getting a decent start. In the last game, he accumulated 37 runs. He hammered unbeaten 115 runs in 75 balls including 8 6’s in the 3rd game.

Kevin O’Brien finally got back to form in the last match. 60 runs from 41 deliveries in the second T20I would have given him plenty of confidence and he is expected to continue the same form in the rest of the series.

Craig Young got two early breakthroughs by dismissing the Zimbabwean openers. In 2 matches in this series, he has picked up 2 wickets at an economy of 6.12.

Simi Singh is a useful all-rounder who can float anywhere in the order and has the ability to slow down things with his off-breaks. He has scalped 25 wickets and 217 runs in his T20I career. He turned the match in favor of Ireland in the 1^st T20I. When other batsmen fumbled in the run-chase, he gave some sort of hope for the hosts. Initially, he picked up 2 big wickets. and later on, scored 28* runs from 22 deliveries.

Shane Getkate is doing well in the current series. Managed to score 23 runs and scalped 6 wickets.

ZIM

Craig Ervine will lead Zimbabwe in this series. The 36-year-old southpaw has played 26 T20Is and has scored 536 runs at an average of 22.33 which comprises three fifty-plus scores. Started well in the 1^st T20I. He was looking fairly comfortable until he played a false shot and got dismissed for 17 runs from 12 deliveries. Smashed 33 runs in 18 balls in the last game.

Regis Chakabva looked more convincing than any other batter in the 1^st T20I. He accumulated 47 runs from 28 deliveries. Chakabva averages 38 in the last 4 T20Is. In 2 matches in this series, Chakabva has scored 57 runs at a strike rate of 142.5.

Ryan Burl’s contributions with both bat and ball in the 1^st T20I played a major part in the win for the visitors. Burl has picked up 5 wickets at an economy of 5.75 and has even notched up 49 runs with the bat. Scored 26 runs and picked up a wicket in the third match.

Richard Ngarava deserves all the credit he is getting for his stunning effort to defend 6 runs in the final over of the match in the 1^st T20I. He conceded only 17 runs in his full quota of 4 overs. Picked up a wicket in this series.
