THE PREDICTION
Two bowling attacks in good form go head-to-head in Port of Spain as Ireland take on Zimbabwe. Both were comprehensive winners in the last round, Ireland bowling out Canada for just 85 and winning by 94 runs, whilst Zimbabwe beat Scotland by 108 runs after dismissing them for 140. When taking into account the bowling prowess of both nations, this is expected to be decided by the superior batting unit. Ireland have reached over 200 only once across their four games played so far. Zimbabwe meanwhile, have racked up scores of 321, 200 and 248 across the tournament so far. With that in mind, Zimbabwe have to be favoured in this one.
