Afghanistan:
Afghans made two changes in the last match. They brought in Mohammad Shahzad and dropped the other wicketkeeper S Shafiq.
AFGH also solidified middle order with N Zadran in place of the opener I Janat. Zadran played extremely well in the last match, he will retain his place. They are expected to go unchanged in this match.
Ireland:
Ireland went unchanged into both the matches. Good performance by fast bowlers means Dockrell is likely to sit out for the third match as well.
Porterfield’s form will be a concern and the Captain needs to step up. Young fast bowler Josh Little is available for Ireland as he is the replacement for injured D Delany.
