THE PREDICTION
The strength-in-depth of West Indies came to the fore in the first ODI and whilst there was plenty for them to take away from that match which requires work, victory was hard-fought and well-earned. The presence of Stirling if named in the team should give Ireland that bit more impetus in terms of the net run rate in this second ODI, which could be crucial towards them posting a winning score with the bat whether they be setting or chasing a target. However, the middle order spine of West Indies is significantly stronger than that of Ireland when considering the presence of experienced trio Pollard, Roston Chase and Jason Holder. This is expected to wind up the decisive factor between the two nations here and with home advantage also in the favour, a second successive West Indies win looks to be on the cards.
