Pakistan vs Ireland, T20 World Cup 2024: Prediction
It is not an important match for either team in the context of the World Cup 2024 as both Pakistan and Ireland have failed to qualify for the Super 8. A win in this game will be more for their pride rather than for any meaningful progress in the tournament.
Moreover, the match is highly likely to be interrupted by rain and there is a good chance that it might be abandoned as well.
However, if there is a game, Pakistan will be the favourites, to end their tournament on a high, while the Irish will look to cause an upset and at the same time, pick up their first win in the tournament.
