As for the today's ODI, this is what Cricinfo has to say:
"Contests between Ireland and Pakistan are rare - this will be only their fourth meeting - but the fixture has a place in cricket folklore. Labelled as minnows, Ireland produced a monumental upset to send Pakistan crashing out of the 2007 World Cup in the group stage. Pakistan's pain has healed over time but the memory of that embarrassment lingers."In the earlier tow ODIs against Scotland, Pakistan beat Scotland in the first ODI while the second ODI was washed away by rains. The forecast for today too is mostly cloudy.
The likely opposing teams for the match are:
Ireland squad
AR Cusack, GH Dockrell, DT Johnston, EC Joyce, JF Mooney, TJ Murtagh, KJ O'Brien, NJ O'Brien†, WTS Porterfield*, JNK Shannon, MC Sorensen, PR Stirling, AR White, GC Wilson
Pakistan squad
Abdur Rehman, Asad Ali, Asad Shafiq, Ehsan Adil, Imran Farhat, Junaid Khan, Kamran Akmal†, Misbah-ul-Haq*, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Irfan, Nasir Jamshed, Saeed Ajmal, Shoaib Malik, Umar Amin, Wahab Riaz
Umpires IJ Gould (England) and RP Smith
The match is scheduled on Thursday 23 May 09:45 GMT | at Clontarf Cricket Club Ground, Dublin.
