SCO vs IRE Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview: UAE TRI-SERIES| Can Ireland make it 4/4?

By Omkar91

Welcome to our Preview of SCO vs IRE, the 4th match in the ODI Tri-series that involves UAE, Ireland & Scotland. This match will be played at the ICC Academy ground, Dubai. This is our prediction of Dream11 Team and probable playing XI for SCO vs IRE.

Scotland lost the first match against the same opponent by 6 wickets. There were few positives for Scottish team as both the debutants made a good first impression. Jones impressed with a solid 87 at the top whereas Sole did well to pick up to Irish wickets. Senior players will like to take inspiration for this and try and beat their better neighbors.

Ireland showing might have been unbeaten in the tournament so far. After defeating UAE twice, they won against Scotland in the last match too. By winning this match, they would very much like to extend their winning streak and gain momentum for impending World Cup qualifiers.
