Afghanistan vs Ireland Betting Tips
Rahmanullah Gurbaz was dominant during the ODI series and the keeper-batter is our tip for Afghanistan’s highest run scorer in this opening match of the T20Is. After a length break with a back injury, star-spinner Rashid Khan will return for this game and he is a strong choice for Afghanistan’s top wicket taker in this game.
Harry Tector hit a century in the first ODI on this tour and he is our pick for Ireland’s highest run scorer against Afghanistan. Josh Little is a very consistent wicket taker in short format cricket and the left-arm pacer is well worth backing as Ireland’s top wicket taker on Friday.
Rashid Khan is one of the world’s best spinners in T20I cricket and we recommend selecting him to take over 1.5 wickets in this match.

Afghanistan vs Ireland 1st T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips
After Afghanistan won the three-match ODI series 2-0, they go head to head once more with Ireland in the opening game of the three-match T20I series on Friday. Both teams won their last T20I fixtures, with Afghanistan beating Sri Lanka last month and Ireland defeating Zimbabwe in December. Read on as we preview this fixture. The game gets underway at 20:00 local time in Sharjah.
Afghanistan were too strong for Ireland in the two ODIs we saw earlier this month and we expect their dominance to continue in this shorter format. They won by 3 runs in their last T20I against Sri Lanka and we are backing them to come out on top in Sharjah.
Ireland lost their opening T20I in their last series against Zimbabwe but then went on to win the series 2-1. In Sharjah, they will be desperate to get off to a winning start but know they must improve from their showing in the ODIs. This could well be a tough opening game of the series.
Afghanistan vs Ireland Match Toss Prediction
Although the last T20I here was won by the team fielding first, the previous three were all won by the team batting first. Our prediction is both captains will choose to bat first if they win the toss.
Afghanistan vs Ireland Pitch Report
This should be a good cricket surface which will offer some help for both batters and bowlers. A par score is likely to be no higher than 155.
Sharjah Weather Report
There is no danger of any rain throughout the scheduled hours of the game on Friday evening with the temperature around 24 degrees throughout.
