Match 31 of the 2022 T20 World Cup sees Australia and Ireland go head to head on Monday evening in Brisbane. Australia and Ireland have both picked up three points from their opening three matches and both saw their games abandoned without a ball bowled on Friday. Read on as we preview this game. The Super 12 stage match gets underway at 19:00 local time at the Gabba.
Australia have not been in the best of form over recent games but were ruthless with the bat against Sri Lanka. In front of passionate supporters in Brisbane, we expect Australia to dominate from the first ball.
Ireland have not had the opportunity to build on their win over England yet. This game will be just as tough and an Ireland win would be one of the biggest upsets ever seen in this sport.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Sky Sports Cricket, Star Network, Fox Sports, ESPN and PTV.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Sky Go and Disney+ Hotstar
Four of the six IT20s played at the Gabba have been won by the team batting first. We predict that both skippers will want to bat first ahead of this match.
There will be plenty of pace and carry for the quick bowlers on this pitch. Expect spinners to also enjoy bowling on this surface which will turn and bounce.
Partly cloudy during the scheduled hours of this game but it will still be warm with temperatures above 25 degrees from start to finish.

There has been an illness running through the Australia squad which saw Adam Zampa miss the win over Sri Lanka and forced keeper-batter Matthew Wade to travel to the ground separately ahead of the abandoned game against England. We expect Zampa to come back into the side for this game.
Australia have won only one of their last five games in this format.

David Warner, Aaron Finch (c), Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Tim David, Matthew Wade (wk), Adam Zampa, Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood
With their game against Afghanistan abandoned without a ball being bowled, all of Ireland’s batters and bowlers will be well rested ahead of this clash. They beat England in their last match and we expect to see the same XI given the chance to defeat Australia in Brisbane.
Ireland have lost only one of their last seven IT20s.
Paul Stirling, Andy Balbirnie (c), Lorcan Tucker (wk), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Fionn Hand, Josh Little
This will be only the second time that these sides have met in IT20 cricket. Australia won the previous match by seven wickets in September 2012.

Although Ireland pulled off a major upset by beating England in their last completed game, they are expected to lose this match. The bookies have Australia as strong favourites.

Australia managed to get themselves out of a tough situation against Sri Lanka thanks to some powerful hitting from Marcus Stoinis. With both bat and ball, they have world class performers who can single-handedly win a match.
David Warner, Aaron Finch and Mitch Marsh are our picks to be the key batters for Australia. Marsh has a top score of 77 not out in this format.
Our tips are Paul Stirling, Andy Balbirnie and Lorcan Tucker for Ireland. Tucker has scored four half-centuries in IT20s with a top score of 84.
We are backing Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Adam Zampa with the ball for Australia. Zampa has plenty of experience and he will improve Australia’s bowling attack by coming back into the team. Josh Little, Mark Adair and Gareth Delany are our recommendations for Ireland’s bowlers. Delany has taken 42 international wickets.
With both teams seeing their last fixture rained off, the points on offer in this game have become even more crucial. We expect Ireland to cause Australia some problems but struggle to maintain their high level across the match. Overall, we are backing Australia to win.
