Another day, another brilliant win for Ireland. However, it’s not a surprise as Ireland were huge favourites to win the matches either way.

IRE Team News
Having won the series, Ireland may look to rest a few of its players. The likes of Harry Tector and Lorcan Tucker can get a game.
IRE Key Players
- Paul Stirling - After a brilliant hundred in the third T20I, Stirling played another solid knock of 39. He is now the leading run-scorer of the series and can be backed to come good in the final T20I as well.
- Kevin O Brien - Brien’s performance is also one of the biggest positives for Ireland. Kevin O’Brien played another brilliant knock in the 4th T20I and scored a quickfire 47. He’s love to end the series with a big knock.
- Mark Adair - What an addition he has been. In two matches, Adair has picked up seven wickets and will be looking to add a few more in the final game of the series.
With three back to back wins, Ireland have taken an unassailable lead in the series.

Zimbabwe Team News & Playing 11
ZIM Team News
It’s been a sorry tale for Zimbabwe on this tour. They have been led down by the batters but that was expected as their three most experienced batters - Brendan Taylor, Sean Williams and Sikandar Raza are not part of the XI.
ZIM Key Players
- Craig Ervine - Ervine once again got a start but couldn’t convert it into something substantial. But he has looked good and we can hope for a big performance from him in the final game.
- Regis Chakabva - Zimbabwe need some spark in their batting and Chakabva is one player who can provide them with the same. He has done well of late and a decent knock from him cannot be counted out.
- Luke Jongwe - He’s Zimbabwe's strike bowler and needs to give the team some early breakthroughs if Zimbabwe has to restrict Ireland to a low score.
Zimbabwe have lost three back to back series.
Zimbabwe Predicted Playing 11
Wesley Madhevere, Tadiwanashe Marumani, Regis Chakabva (wk), Dion Myers, Craig Ervine (c), Milton Shumba, Luke Jongwe, Donald Tiripano, Wellington Masakadza, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava
