Ireland have a lot to do, as they lost the first game. Though they cannot match England’s batting strength, they can create chances. For that, they need a complete performance. That is what Paul Stirling will hope from his team.

• Batting: The batting unit did well for Ireland in the first match. Harry Tector, Lorcan Tucker, and Stirling form a strong top order, and they put the English bowlers under pressure.
• Bowling: The bowling is weaker for Ireland. They have injury concerns for their key bowlers but have decent backup. But it is about using the conditions and executive bowling plans for the hosts.
