South Africa vs Ireland 1st ODI preview

South Africa vs Ireland in Dublin starts tomorrow with the first ODI. These ODIs will be important as they count for the world cup super league points and South Africans will want to get their campaign going as they look to kick start their path to qualify for the 2023 world cup.

South Africa will look also to get their combinations right as they continue to look to balance their white-ball teams. The biggest question will be can they fit in an all-rounder in the team to give themselves a sixth bowling option that will balance the side better.

Ireland will want to reboot their bid to qualify for the 2023 world cup as they have played 9 matches and only got 20 points so far. These matches will be very crucial for them as defeat will leave them highly likely to fail to qualify directly for the world cup.

Ireland Probable XI: 1. Paul Sterling, 2. Jeremy Lawlor, 3. Andy Balbirnie, 4. Harry Tector, 5. Curtis Campher, 6. Lorcan Tucker, 7.Simi Singh, 8. Andy Mcbrine, 9 Barry McCarthy, 10. Josh Little, 11. Craig Young.

South Africa Probable XI: 1 Quinton de Kock, 2. Aiden Markram, 3. Temba Bavuma, 4. Rassie van der Dussen, 5. David Miller, 6. Wiaan Mulder, 7. Andile Phehlukawayo, 8. Keshav Maharaj, 9. Kagiso Rabada, 10 Anrich Nortje, 11 Tabraiz Shamsi

this what I think the starting XI will look like for tomorrows game.

this is what the world cup super league table looks like so far
