The game begins at 14:00 local time.
It was another excellent display from Bangladesh in the opening IT20 with all of their batters coming to the crease and hitting runs at a high strike-rate. They are a very good team at home.
Ireland had a good go at their target of 104 from eight overs in the first match of the series but do look to be far weaker than Bangladesh in these conditions.

Bangladesh Team News & Playing 11
BAN Team News
The home side have not been afraid to rest key players, particularly in the bowling attack, across this last month which has seen many games scheduled. However, with no bowler delivering more than two overs on Monday, we expect the same team to be selected for this game.
BAN Key Players
- Litton Das - The keeper-batter began the month in poor form but comes into this match after hitting 167 runs from his last three innings.
- Shakib Al Hasan - The captain is in excellent form but took himself down the order on Monday and only bowled one over with the ball. However, he still had the best economy rate on his team and hit 20 not out.
- Taskin Ahmed - The 27 year old fast bowler took four of the five Irish wickets in the first game. Ross Adair was the only batter who was dismissed by someone other than Taskin.
BAN Team Form
Bangladesh continue to play strong cricket and a win in this match will bring up their fifth IT20 victory in a row.

Ireland Team News & Playing 11
IRE Team News
Announced before the first IT20, skipper Andy Balbirnie has been rested for the series with the experienced opener, Paul Stirling, leading the side. After the first game of the series was interrupted by rain, we do not expect any changes for this match.
IRE Key Players
- Paul Stirling - the skipper got his side off to an excellent start with four fours from his eight ball innings. He has experience of playing on low bounce wickets like in this match.
- Lorcan Tucker - The keeper-batter stumped the dangerous Najmul Hossain Shanto but lasted only two balls with the bat on Monday. He is capable of winning a game in any format with the bat.
- Graham Hume - Although Craig Young took more wickets in the opening game of the series, Hume got the top scorer Rony Talukdar out and was more economical than most of the Irish attack.
IRE Team Form
Ireland are in a poor run of form in this format and are looking to avoid their third successive IT20 defeat in this match.
Ireland Predicted Playing 11
Paul Stirling, Ross Adair, Lorcan Tucker (wk), Harry Tector, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Curtis Campher, Craig Young, Mark Adair, Graham Hume, Ben White

Who will win Bangladesh vs Ireland 2nd T20 Match?
Ireland produced an entertaining innings with the bat in the first game of the series but Bangladesh never looked like they were in trouble. The home side have a far better squad than Ireland to choose from in this game.
Bangladesh vs Ireland Prediction
Bangladesh completed their highest ever powerplay score in IT20s in the first game of this series and they have been able to dominate the majority of Ireland’s bowlers across the entirety of this tour. Ireland continue to battle hard but the reality is that their players have nowhere near enough experience in these conditions at this level. We predict another one-sided game with Bangladesh getting another win.
