UAE vs IRE Dream11 prediction: Match preview

Playing their first ODI game in one year, the UAE Cricket Team defied all expectations as they thundered to a victory over the far more experienced Ireland Cricket team. Sent in to bowl first, the Emirates side was slightly loose, giving away 269 runs courtesy of some heavy-hitting by Paul Stirling 131* (148) and a 53 off 61 by captain Andrew Balbirnie. Rohan Mustafa was the standout bowler for the hosts, ending his 10 overs with brilliant figures of 43-2 and one maiden over.

With Ireland holding the advantage in just about every possible sphere, the UAE needed a miracle performance to win, and they delivered. After three early wickets saw the UAE fall to 51/3 in 12.5 overs, CP Rizwan and Mohammad Usman came out all guns blazing. The duo made back to back centuries - Rizwan 109, Usman 102* - to take their team through to the win. With the series now 1-0 in favour of the hosts, Ireland will be hoping to come back strong with a win in Tuesday's game.
