Preview:

Netherlands (NED) are all set to host Ireland (IRE) in the sixth T20I of the tri-series on Friday, May 24, at the Sportpark Westvliet, in Hague.

The Netherlands have underperformed in the series so far as after winning their first game against Scotland by 41 runs, they have lost two games on the trot and are reeling at the bottom of the points table. They suffered a narrow one-run defeat against Ireland and then a huge 71-run loss against Scotland after being bowled out for 87 runs.

Meanwhile, Ireland will be confident after their victory over the same opponents in their previous meeting. The Irish side recently lost a T20I series 1-2 against Pakistan. The Paul Stirling side, before facing the Netherlands, will play another game against the Scottish side, resulting in back-to-back matches. Their second game of the series against Scotland was washed out due to heavy rains.
