ENG vs IRE 2nd ODI Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Pitch Report | ENG vs IRE 2nd ODI 2023 Dream11 Prediction Today Match | Nottingham Pitch Report
Take two. Rain did not allow for a single ball to be bowled at Headingley, meaning a number of new faces had to wait that little bit longer for a taste of international cricket.
Also, the in-form Zak Crawley gets the opportunity to lead England. He came of age in the Ashes series earlier this year. Plus, we can expect the same attacking brand of cricket despite the new-look squad, with a number of strong Hundred performers set to play.
For Ireland, this is a chance to make a fresh start. Their ODI World Cup qualification campaign was a disappointment earlier this year. Their full-strength squad will be looking to test this England side, with the likes of Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector having plenty to offer.

ENG vs IRE 2nd ODI Dream11 Prediction – Fantasy Tips
England:
- Will Jacks was among the best batters of The Hundred 2023. He is known for his explosive batting and expect some fireworks again in the powerplay. He can also contribute with the ball if required.
- In 12 ODIs, Phil Salt has scored 460 runs at an average of 38.33 and strike rate of 125.68. This includes two fifties and a century.
- Rehan Ahmed can trouble the Irish batters with his variations. He has got a threatening googly. Rehan has worked on his lengths and pace, so there is a chance of him being among the wickets throughout this series.
- Brydon Carse has got the pace to stifle Ireland. He will be crucial for England in the middle overs, and the team would want him to bowl those hard lengths into the pitch. So far, Carse has 13 wickets at 33.46 runs apiece in 10 ODI innings.
- Luke Wood is known for his new ball expertise. If some early movement is available, as mostly the case in English conditions, Wood can move the ball to scalp a few wickets early on. He will also bowl a few overs in the death.
Ireland:
- Paul Stirling has 337 runs at an average of 30.63 and a strike rate of 101.50 in 11 ODI innings against England. This includes a century.
- Andy Balbirnie has 197 runs at an average of 28.14 and a strike rate of 76.95 in seven ODI innings against England. He also hit a century in Southampton in 2020.
- Harry Tector has 618 runs at a fantastic average of 56.18 and a strike rate of 96.11 in 13 ODI innings this year. This includes four half-centuries and two centuries.
- Curtis Campher has made two 50+ scores in as many innings against England. He has also snared five wickets at an average of 28.80 in three ODI innings against them.
- Josh Little has nine wickets at a terrific average of 18.55 and a strike rate of 17.88 in three ODI innings against England. He has some experience of playing in these conditions.
