Afghanistan will take on Ireland in the third and final ODI of the three-match series on March 12 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah. The Hashmatullah Shahidi-led side are currently leading in the series with a 1-0 margin after the second game was washed out owing to consistent rain.
Following the defeat in the first ODI, Ireland wouldn’t have asked for such an outing in the second fixture where rain played spoilsport in an otherwise what would have been a series deciding game for Paul Stirling-led side. However, they have a chance to equalize the series in Sharjah in the final game.
Afghanistan, on the other hand, are comfortably placed with a 1-0 lead in the series and will look to seal the series without a loss in the final game. Their batting is led by the attacking opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who scored a brilliant century in the first game. Apart from him, Ibrahim Zadran, Nabi, and Shahidi also contributed with the bat.
