Zimbabwe vs Ireland 3rd ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips
With the series level at 1-1, Zimbabwe and Ireland go head to head in the third and final ODI at the Harare Sports Club on Monday. The hosts went 1-0 up in the series with a three wicket win on Wednesday before Ireland came out on top by 46 runs on Saturday. Read on as we preview this decisive game. The match gets underway at 09:15 local time.
It was a surprise to see Zimbabwe make three changes for Saturday’s game when a victory would have seen them complete a series win. Without their captain, Craig Ervine, they do not look as strong a side.
Ireland finally put a stop to their run of defeats in ODIs and will now come into this game looking forwards. They have no reason to be un-confident ahead of this match.
