Topmost Picks for ZIM vs IRE Dream11 Prediction:
Top Picks – Zimbabwe
- Sikandar Raza- Sikandar Raza has failed in both the games so far and this will be concerning for the team. In the absence of Williams and Ervine, Raza is Zimbabwe’s biggest hope.
- Richard Ngarava- Richard Ngarava has been consistent in the series and the Ireland batters have found it hard against him. Once again, the left arm pacer will be looking for a decent show.
Top Picks – Ireland
- Harry Tector- Harry Tector is a match winner with the bat on his day. The batter averages 50 in ODIs. He got a start of 21 in the 2nd ODI but failed to convert. However, he is very consistent so expect some fireworks from him very soon.
- Curtis Campher- Campher brings a lot to the table, with bat as well as ball. He played a match winning innings of 66 in 2nd ODI. He is also very handy with the ball and has delivered many memorable performances for Ireland.
Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for ZIM vs IRE Dream11 Team:
Lorcan Tucker, Harry Tector, Milton Shumba, Clive Madande, Sikandar Raza(C), Ryan Burl, Richard Ngarava, Curtis Campher(VC), Craig Young, Joshua Little, Blessing Muzarabani

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for ZIM vs IRE Dream11 Team:
Lorcan Tucker, Harry Tector, T Kamunhukamwe, Clive Madande, Sikandar Raza, Ryan Burl, B Mavuta, Curtis Campher, Mark Adair, Joshua Little(C), Blessing Muzarabani(VC)

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:
Captain – Sikandar Raza, Joshua Little
Vice-captain – Harry Tector, Blessing Muzarabani
Wicketkeeper – Lorcan Tucker
ZIM vs IRE Probable Winners:
Ireland will begin as the favorite. Zimbabwe is missing Sean Williams and Craig Ervine, and they don’t appear to have the batting quality to score big runs or even last 50 overs. They may reach a high total if Sikandar Raza fires, but Raza has looked out of sorts in both games, which is a major concern. At the moment, Ireland appears to be far ahead of Zimbabwe, so we recommend backing Ireland to win. Considering the team combination, Zimbabwe is expected to win this match.
