The men from West Indies and Ireland are set to compete against each other in the 2nd ODI of the WI vs IRE series. The WI vs IRE encounter is scheduled to take place at Sabina Park, Kingston on Thursday, 13th January. Earlier, the match was scheduled to take place on Tuesday, 11th January. However, three fresh Covid-19 positive cases along with two injured players had left the Ireland squad “severely depleted”, thereby forcing the postponement of the second ODI. Ireland captain Andy Balbirnie, wicket-keeper Lorcan Tucker along Interim head coach David Ripley returned positive tests over the weekend. Ireland’s playing resources were further depleted by concerns over the concussion Andy McBrine suffered in the first ODI, and a foot injury sustained by Mark Adair.
During the 1st ODI of the WI vs IRE series, West Indies left no room for error as they won by 24 runs over Ireland. The combination of Shamarh Brooks and Kieron Pollard’s sparkling innings as well as the bowlers’ heroics ultimately helped them claim the victory. Ireland, on the other hand, played extremely well in the opener of the series despite falling well short of the target by 24 runs. It’s a must-win game for Ireland to stay alive in the series.
