IRE vs AFG Match Details — Afghanistan Tour of Ireland 2026 3rd ODI

The third One Day International (ODI) of the five-match series between hosts Ireland and Afghanistan will be held in Belfast. The game is scheduled for August 10 at the Civil Service Cricket Club Ground. Afghanistan has taken a 1-0 lead in the match after winning the second one-day international, after the first was called off due to rain. Ireland's senior batters did not turn up, with skipper Paul Stirling dismissed cheaply and Andrew Balbirnie failing to play a respectable knock. Bowlers did their best, but Afghanistan's batters had the last laugh. With this, Afghanistan's overall head-to-head record has improved to 19 wins over Ireland, who have won 13 and only 2 in the last ten games.

The surface is typical of an Irish pitch, which usually helps seamers with swing and seam movement early on, especially when overcast and there is some grass coverage. Bounce is generally accurate. After the new ball softens and moisture vanishes, the track settles into a good batting surface.

Ireland vs Afghanistan Match Prediction – Who Will Win

Afghanistan are hot favorites to extend their series lead. They dominated the head-to-head and put on a clinical display in the final game, with Ibrahim Zadran's 84 and Rashid Khan's career-best 6/34 proving decisive. Ireland showed some resistance through Cade Carmichael's fifty, but crumbled against quality spin. The visitors' superior depth should allow them to win again.

Prediction: Afghanistan (AFG) to win.
