Afghanistan batted very well in the first ODI match of Afghanistan vs Ireland. Afghanistan was able to give Ireland a target of 311 runs due to the responsible batting of Afghanistan's batsmen. However, Afghanistan's target of 311 runs gave Ireland a fighting performance as if Ireland's opening pair could have scored a little better, Ireland would have won the match against Afghanistan. Bowling didn't do so well compared to Afghanistan batsmen so Afghanistan players must keep in mind that they have to bowl better against Ireland if they don't bowl well against Ireland then the match can go by accident so.

Yes you are right I agree that Afghanistan batted very well in the first ODI match against Ireland giving them a competitive target of 311 runs. However, I believe that the focus should also be on improving their bowling performance in order to secure a win against Ireland in future matches. It is important for Afghanistan's players to maintain a balance between their batting and bowling skills in order to consistently perform well in matches. Overall, both teams showed a strong performance in the match and it will be interesting to see how Afghanistan improves their bowling in the upcoming matches.

If Afghanistan's openers perform well, their chances of winning the match will greatly improve. In the first ODI against Ireland, Afghanistan scored 310/5 in 50 overs. Ireland's batters put up a strong fight but fell short by 35 runs. This was due to Afghanistan's bowlers conceding too many runs. Harry Tector's impressive batting caught my attention. Both teams seem evenly matched, capable of winning on their day. However, if Afghanistan wants to secure the series in the next match, they need to improve their bowling, or the outcome could be on Ireland favor.

It's true that Ireland might not win the match because they didn't bowl well at the end. But we should recognize the team's fighting spirit for coming back after a tough start. The partnership between Tector and Tucker gives hope to Ireland. As long as players like Harry Tector are playing Ireland still has a chance. That was the first match of the series we have two more matches so let's see what will Ireland do in these matches.

The performance from Harry Tector and Lorcan Tucker bodes well for the future of the Irish cricket. Tector got himself to 138, but Tucker got out before he could reach triple digits. Both the players are in their 20s, and since they are from the Republic of Ireland (and not from the Northern Ireland), there is a lower chance that the England selectors would poach on them. But bowling still needs a lot of improvement. Mark Adair performed so well in the test series, but he leaked plenty of runs yesterday.

After conceding 310 runs I was not expecting performance like this from them specially as they lost early wicket's situation was clearly indicating they will be lost by huge deficit but Harry Tector and Lorcan Tucker done good partnership and bring their team back into match which is impressive job from these youngsters but still they needed more games in white-ball which can bring good improvement in quality and performance which is important for them and the game as well.

Afghanistan which is currently facing some problems are also having good performance and their top order perform well which give them good foundation for having huge target, but now their bowling is also not good as we have them in ODI world cup where they destroy big teams hopefully things will be back to normal for better future of their game.

Today is the second ODI match between Afghanistan and Ireland. Afghanistan outstanding performance in the first ODI match winning by 35 runs and leading the series by 1-0. In this match the Player of the Match Rahmanullah Gurbaz playing very outclassed cricket scored 121 runs and helped the team to cross 300 plus. Ireland batter Harry Tector performed well and scored 138 but didn't win the match for Ireland. Ireland needs to improve its bowling unit to win the 2nd match and level the series by 1-1.

I think todays match between Afghanistan and Ireland will be very exciting. Afghanistan did really well in the first match especially Rahmanullah Gurbaz who scored a century. They scored over 300 runs showing how strong and determined they are. Harry Tector from Ireland played very well in the match but his great batting was not able to help his team win. Ireland must work on their bowling to have a better chance of winning the series. In cricket, Today match is a chance for Ireland to show how good they are at both batting and bowling. It will be interesting to see if Ireland can win the second match and tie the series.

Yes, Ireland's bowling line needs to improve if they want to win today. Ireland's top order batsmen could not do well in the first match, Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector both batted well, besides no other batsmen could perform well. So both Ireland's batting and bowling lines need to be improved today. However, if I had to make a prediction for today's match, I would put Afghanistan ahead. I think Afghanistan will win today and win the series. But let's see if Ireland can perform well and level the series 1-1.

Today the second ODI match will start between Afghanistan vs Ireland, as the first ODI match was won by Afghanistan team by a huge margin. The difference between the two teams was 35 runs but the number of wickets fell was higher for Ireland. The game of cricket is essentially about keeping wickets for long periods of time, a strategy Ireland team could not sustain due to which they lost. So which team can win today, please comment?

We can't predict exactly which team will win today's game. The team that will play well in the field game will win their victory today. We saw in the previous match i.e. first ODI match Afghanistan team beat Ireland by 35 runs. Similarly, in a test match before that, Ireland again defeated the Afghanistan team. Today Afghanistan vs Ireland will be the second ODI out of the three ODI matches, currently Afghanistan have won the ODI match and they are leading by 1-0. Afghanistan will have a lot of confidence in this match as they won the first ODI match and will try their best to beat Ireland in the second ODI match as well to win the ODI series as they have already lost the Test series to Ireland.

Ireland is not good at cricket so it is doubtful how well Ireland can play against Afghanistan. In the first match Afghanistan won the match by 35 runs but this time I think Afghanistan will win the match by more margin of runs or wickets. Afghanistan is a very popular face in the game of cricket.  And they play very well. Ireland is not very good at playing cricket. so they cannot perform well. i think Afghanistan will win Again

Afghanistan vs Ireland 2nd ODI match starts today of course today's match is very important for Ireland because in the first ODI match Afghanistan won the match against Ireland with great batting. So if Ireland can win today's match against Afghanistan then maybe the series will be tied 1-1. Afghanistan's bowling line was not very good in Ireland's first ODI match so if Ireland can't bowl well in today's match then maybe Ireland can be dangerous for Afghanistan team. If the Ireland team batted in the first one-day match, if they can bat with that consistency and do controlled bowling, then maybe Ireland can win against Afghanistan.

To even out the series Ireland needs to keep batting well like they did before and work on their bowling plan. Afghanistan didn't bowl well in the last match so Ireland might have a chance to take advantage of that. But Ireland shouldn't think the Afghan team is weak. If Ireland can stick to their plan and play to their strengths they could win. It will be exciting to see how both teams do in this match.

In the first ODI match between Afghanistan vs Ireland, the fourth wicket in Ireland's innings created a tense moment in the partnership. I had hoped to see a similar episode in today's second ODI match, but it didn't happen. The second ODI match between Afghanistan vs Ireland was abandoned long before the start of play. It is not often that we see that the match is called off long before the start of the game. The main reason for the cancellation of the game was heavy rain in Sharjah and even if the rain had stopped, it would not have been possible to start the outfield. Anyway, Afghanistan lead 1-0 in the series. We will have to wait until next Tuesday to see if Ireland will level the series or Afghanistan will win the series.

synchronym, the match abandoned, the second one-day international match between Afghanistan and Ireland was not played in the end. And the match was rendered without a ball being bowled.

So now I think there is a good chance for the series being a draw. Because only one match is left and anyone out of these two teams can win this match, okay? Ireland will be looking to win the next match on 12 March. But I reckon the pressure is on Afghanistan because they would want to win the series.

Publictalk792, It turned out to be a no result. Let's hope we can actually see the final match be played. And I think Ireland will learn from their mistakes and will be able to do better in bowling in the final match.

The second ODI match between Ireland vs Afghanistan was very important for Ireland. Because Afghanistan won the first match, the second match might1-1 draw if Ireland had performed well and won  win in the third ODI would have sealed the series, but the game was abandoned due to rain, so if Ireland won the third ODI, the series would be drawn. And if Afghanistan wins then Afghanistan will confirm the series. Afghanistan's bowlers did not bowl well against Ireland due to which Ireland's batsmen performed better than expected so it is expected that if Ireland can bowl and bat well then they can win the third ODI against Afghanistan. Since cricket is a game of uncertainty, the team that performs well on the field will definitely win. Best wishes to both the teams so that they can perform well.

[Justin999]

I was excited about the 2nd ODI match of Afghanistan vs Ireland but unfortunately the match abandoned due to rainy weather. I was waiting but it had been unstoppable raining in Sharjah and that's why the match had to abandoned without any toss as the entire outfield wasn't perfect for play. Afghanistan undoubtedly a good and strong team but i have interested on Ireland as i wanted to see how they perform with Afghanistan. Cause in 1st Odi match, they lost but they performed well and made good amount of runs 275/8 in 50 overs where Harry Tector scored 138 runs. And Afghanistan made 310/ in 50 overs.

The second ODI game was not held and not even single ball was played in pitch because of poor weather condition. If we compare past game condition then Afghanistan team have good opportunity to win this 2 nd game but unfortunately this was not played and in 1 st game, Afghanistan team played very brilliant and they made a good gaming strategy and also scored 310 runs target in 50 overs which was not bad. But Ireland team was played there batting lineup very slow and they played all 50 overs but did not chase 310 runs target and lost this game. We see some Batsman effort of Ireland was outstanding and better then Afghanistan team Batsman but only few ones. Next 3 rd game of this series will be held on Tuesday after two days let see Afghanistan team win this series or will tied this series.

The match was really challenging but due to weather it didn't held. It's sad for both teams because Afghanistan played well in the first match and set a tough target of 310 runs. Ireland lost the first game because they batted slowly even though some of their players did well.
In the next match we will see if Afghanistan can keep playing well and win the series or if Ireland can come back and make it even. I hope both teams do their best in the upcoming matches to give fans an exciting game.

I was waiting but it had been unstoppable raining in Sharjah and that's why the match had to abandoned without any toss as the entire outfield wasn't perfect for play. Afghanistan undoubtedly a good and strong team but i have interested on Ireland as i wanted to see how they perform with Afghanistan. Cause in 1st Odi match, they lost but they performed well and made good amount of runs 275/8 in 50 overs where Harry Tector scored 138 runs. And Afghanistan made 310/ in 50 overs.

The Afghanistan team has performed poorly in previous seasons but has performed very well with the Island team. Especially in the ODI matches, the bowling performance is the reason why the win in this match, but comparatively Ireland team also perform well if they are seen to perform for a long time keeping the wickets. But in no way could the batting of the Ireland team stand in front of the Afghanistan bowling, the wicket fell quickly and the Ireland team lost by 35 runs.

Afghanistan's batting and bowling weaknesses were clearly exposed in the matches that Afghanistan team played against Sri Lanka. But Afghanistan's batsmen batted brilliantly against Ireland. However, the bowlers did not bowl well against Ireland compared to the Afghanistan batsmen. As the Ireland batsmen performed fairly well against Afghanistan, the Afghanistan bowlers should focus on their bowling in the third ODI. As the second ODI was abandoned due to rain, the third ODI will surely see Ireland win that match to draw the series. So Afghanistan's batsmen and bowlers need to perform well against Ireland. Ireland can't be taken lightly Ireland's batting line-up was quite good as we saw that in the first one-dayer against Afghanistan. So the third one-dayer must have Afghanistan bowling well against Ireland.

The second match abounded due to Rain and Afghanistan's lead is continue 1-0. Afghanistan batting and bowling performance was outstanding in the first ODI match and they won by 35 runs. Ireland was very close to chasing the target but they lost quick wickets and Scored only 275 runs in loss of 8 wickets and just 35 runs short to winning the target. Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector's batting performance was well but they didn't win because of bowling performance of Afghanistan is amazing, especially Fazalhaq Farooqi. Ireland will come back in the 3rd Odi match.
