What Have The Two Teams Done So Far?
USA kick-started their campaign with a sparkling performance against Canada but it was in the second match they played that the team made everyone sit up and take notice.
It was against Pakistan they managed to eke out a tie and then went on to win it in the Super Over. India managed to edge out USA in their third game but not before they had put up a brave front.
Ireland are in strife and they know it. Losing to India was no disgrace but they would have surely been expected to do better against Canada. Unfortunately for them, they failed to chase down 137, losing by 12 runs.
Quick USA vs IRE Preview
As things stand currently, USA have a brilliant chance to make it through to the Super Eight stage while Ireland look all but knocked out.
All that USA have to do is to win this game and they would have knocked Pakistan, Ireland and Canada out of the tournament. There is another way they can make it through and that’s if the match gets rained off.
And the chances of that happening are high too.
Rain has been forecast on the match-day but the good news was that the there were no such issues on Thursday, a day before the game.
In a tournament like this, however, things can change drastically.
Ireland might look very likely to go out of the tournament but two solid games from them can change the course completely.
If Ireland can beat both USA here and Pakistan in their next game also to be played at this venue, they would be up to four points – paving for a two-way tie between them and USA and the net run-rate will then come into the equation.
The trouble with the above scenario is that it’s mathematical in nature. On the field of play, things have gone rather badly for Ireland and they will hope to do a lot better if they want to give a confident team like USA a run for their money.
