SL vs IRE Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the 4th match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 where Sri Lanka takes on Ireland. Both teams got off to a winning start in the season opener and are favorites to go through from this group. Although both teams will be eager to get a win here to make the pathway easier. Sri Lanka beat Namibia in the previous match after the bowlers bundled out the opposition within a 100 and the batsman got the job done despite a top-order stutter. Ireland, on the other hand, beat the dutch on the back of a game-changing over from youngster Curtis Campher who took a hat-trick, and then it was a walk in the park for the Irish batters. This promises to be an exciting contest.
