England will look forward to💝 ride on the momentum gained after winning the first two matches and finish the series on a high note when they take on Ireland in the last ODI to be played at Southampton on Tuesday (August 4).
On the o🦩ther hand, Ireland will leave no stones unturned to av🌃oid a whitewash, and gain a crucial ten points as the series is also a part of ICC World Cup Super League.
Although൲ the scoreline of 2-0 might suggest England have thoroughly dominated the clash, Ireland did put them under serious pressure in the second ODI. Also, for Ireland💟, their top-order batsmen have been a colossal disappointment.
England vs Ireland Probable XIs:
England
In the absence of England’s mainstays like Jos Buttler, Jofra Archer, Ben Stokes and Joe Root, young guns of English squad got a pleasant opportunity to showcase their talent.
While players like David Willey and Sam Billings have ⭕splendidly capita✃lized the opportunity, the likes of Tom Banton, James Vince and Moeen Ali are yet to prove their mettle. Even Jason Roy would be desperate to go big in the third ODI.
On the bowling front, Liam Dawson might come ꧅in ꧙for injured Reece Topley.
Predicted XI: Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow (wk), James Vince, Eoin Morgan (c), Sam Billings, Tom Banton, Moeen Ali, David ꧙Willey, ꦕLiam Dawson, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood
Ireland
There will be a massive burden on the opening duo for Ireland, Paul Stirling and Gareth Delany, to provide a solid start to their team. Both these batsmen have🌄 fallen prey to David Willey insi🧔de the first eight overs and exposed the Irish middle-order early in the game.
Curtis Campher has been the batsman for tourists, showing commendab🍬le technicalities and patience as he scored a gutsy half-century in consecutive matches.
Joshua Little has been their standout bowler in the last match, and Ireland will be expecting a similar sort of performanc🦂e on Tuesday.
Predicted XI: Paul Stirling, Gareth Delany, Andrew Balbirnie (c), Harry Tector, Kevin O’Brien, Lorcan Tucker (wk), Curtis Campher, Simi Singh, Andy McBrine, Craig Young, Joshua Little
