Preview

Ireland and Zimbabwe are set to take on each other in the Only Test in Zimbabwe’s tour of Ireland. The game will be played at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Stormont in Belfast from July 25. Notably, it will be the first-ever Test between Ireland and Zimbabwe in the Test history of both countries. Speaking of Ireland’s recent form, they have won only one Test in the last five Tests they have played while losing four matches.

They registered a 6-wicket win in the previous Test against Afghanistan. Before that, they lost two Tests against Sri Lanka, alongside one defeat each against Bangladesh and England. 

On the other hand, Zimbabwe are enduring a dismal run of form in the last five Tests they have played. They lost four games out of the last five they played, including a ‘drawn Test’. They lost the last Test meet against West Indies by a narrow margin of 4 runs.

Pitch Report

The pitch at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Stormont, Belfast, is well-balanced. Historically, the pacers have been very successful at this venue. The pitch offers early assistance to the pace bowlers, and there's also some extra bounce available. Regardless, batting should be a nice experience, at least in the first inning. The pitch deteriorates a little as the game goes on; spinners come into play in the later phase of the match.

Andy Balbirnie IRE | BAT

Andy Balbirnie is Ireland’s linchpin in the middle order. His ability to anchor the innings will be critical, especially against Zimbabwe bowlers.

Muzarabani’s height and pace pose a significant threat, and his knack for picking crucial wickets can disrupt Ireland’s batting plans.
