New Zealand vs Ireland T20 World Cup: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details for Match 37
Match 37 of the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will see New Zealand take on Ireland at the Adelaide Oval on Friday.
New Zealand are the table-toppers in Group 1. They have played four games so far, winning two and losing one, with one being washed out due to rain. They faced England in their last game, where they suffered a 20-run defeat.
After being asked to bowl first, the Kiwis struggled to contain the English side as they posted 179 on the board. Lockie Ferguson picked up two wickets but they were expensive.
In reply, Kane Williamson (40) and Glenn Phillips (62) tried hard but it wasn’t enough as they finished their innings on 159/6. They will now have to win their next game against Ireland to qualify for the semi-finals.
Ireland, on the other hand, are placed fifth in the points table and have only three points to their name. They have only managed to win a single game while losing two, with one being abandoned. They lost to Australia by 42 runs in their previous fixture at the Gabba.
Bowling first, Barry McCarthy picked up three wickets and Joshua Little grabbed two as the Aussies scored 179 at the end of their 20 overs. Lorcan Tucker was the lone fighter for the Irish side with an unbeaten 71.
They have a slim chance of qualifying for the semi-finals and will have to beat New Zealand by a big margin on Friday.
