THE LOWDOWN
ZIMBABWE
Zimbabwe have little time to rest on their laurels after losing the second T20i as they go again on the following day here. However, the big news is that just like that match, the hosts will once again have to cope without the services of their captain and star player Sikandar Raza due to his two-match suspension following an ICC Code of Conduct breach.
IRELAND
Ireland took advantage of a weakened Zimbabwean side without skipper Raza, winning the second T20i by four wickets and levelling the series. Top batter Harry Tector starred for the tourists with 48 in a successful run chase of 166, reaching their victory target with just two balls to spare. But all the middle order can take credit, with key contributions throughout.
THE PREDICTION
This is a huge opportunity for Ireland to secure a series win when taking into account the absence of Zimbabwe’s leader and best player. Whilst this doesn’t automatically make Zimbabwe a bad side, they simply aren’t as strong without Sikandar Raza, which evens the odds right up for Ireland. Momentum is in their favour and backing Ireland to complete a comeback series victory is worth backing.
BETTING TIP: IRELAND TO WIN
