Bangladesh vs Ireland prediction
After being beaten in surprising fashion by Ireland to open up this series, Bangladesh hit back this past weekend, levelling things up with a hard-fought four-wicket win. That result sets things up nicely for this rubber-match which both nations will no doubt see as eminently winnable. Ireland have competed extremely well with the bat so far, but may find things harder in Mirpur, where they struggled badly in the second test.
The venue works in Bangladesh’s favour, as should the pitch. The question is whether their batters can deliver like they did on Saturday. In home conditions, it’s more likely that they do and it would be no surprise if Ireland showed a little fatigue following a long tour. Therefore, back Bangladesh to edge what should be a great game.
