What to Expect from the ODI Series
Ireland and Afghanistan have developed a competitive rivalry through their regular meetings in international cricket. Playing at home should give Ireland an advantage in the cooler conditions, but Afghanistan possess several experienced players capable of changing a match quickly.
Afghanistan's spin bowling is likely to become more influential as each match progresses, whereas Ireland's best opportunity may come through disciplined seam bowling and partnerships at the top of the order. With five matches scheduled over eleven days, squad depth and the ability to adjust between Bready and Stormont could have an important effect on the final series result.
