England and Ireland will face each other in the 3rd ODI of the series on Tuesday. With a powerful all-round show, England prevailed in the 2nd ODI and took a 1-0 lead. Meanwhile, Ireland, who cannot win the series, will only play until the score is 1-1.

The three-match ODI series between England and Ireland ends on Tuesday at the County Ground in Bristol. The first game of the series was abandoned without a ball being bowled before England won by 48 runs at Trent Bridge in Nottingham on Saturday. The game starts at 12:30 local time in Bristol.

England were too strong in the opening game thanks to excellent batting in the first innings. They will fancy their chances of another win in this game.

Ireland need to improve their game to level the series. Especially with the ball, they need some better economy rates during this ODI.

Match Preview

Get ready for an exciting clash as England (ENG) take on Ireland (IRE) in the 3rd ODI of the 2023 Ireland-England tour at the Gloucestershire Cricket Stadium, Bristol. England currently lead the three-match series 1-0, with the 1st ODI abandoned due to rain and the 2nd ODI resulting in a convincing 48-run win for England.

In the 2nd ODI, England (ENG) made a splash, scoring an impressive 334 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. Openers Phil Salt and Will Jacks formed a solid foundation with a 55-year partnership. Ben Duckett's powerful batting as well as contributions from Jacks and Sam Hain anchored their innings. George Dockrell and Craig Young showed off their bowling skills for Ireland.

In pursuit of that target, Irish openers Andy Balbirnie and Paul Stirling started strongly with a 46-run partnership. However, wickets fell at regular intervals with Craig Young and Barry McCarthy putting in commendable performances. Despite their efforts, Ireland finished their innings with 286 runs, resulting in a win for England. Rehan Ahmed and George Scrimshaw shone as England's outstanding bowlers.

Toss Prediction

Three of the last five completed ODIs have been won by the team that started first in Bristol. Our prediction is that both captains will want to play first.

Weather Report

Although it is expected to clear up in the mid-afternoon, the forecast is for light rain during the first innings of the match on Tuesday.

Head to Head

Although England and Ireland are neighbors, these teams have only played a few games against each other. But some of the games played proved to be closely contested affairs. If you look at the head-to-head record between the two teams, you will notice that of the 14 games between the two teams, England have won 11 and Ireland have won 2. One of the games was canceled.

Match Prediction

Some big hits from the Irish lower league made Saturday's game seem closer than it actually was, but also showed that this England team's bowling department still has a lot of work to do. We're predicting a game where Ireland are more competitive across the board but rely on England to win again.

England to beat Ireland in 3rd ODI

Venue Details

The County Ground in Bristol is good for batting as the wicket does not offer much support to the bowlers. Batsmen have always enjoyed this run as the ball travels well to the bat. Fast bowlers can move the ball in the early overs. It's a challenging venue for spinners with significantly fewer gymnastics offerings.

Betting Tips

The Irish bowling attack was unsuccessful in the final game against a strong but inexperienced English batting line-up. They need to put in an effort in this game if they are to challenge the hosts and have any hopes of leveling the series. The England batters are in good form and are playing at home. We will bet on England to win this match.

Top Fantasy Picks Dream11 Prediction

England Key Players

Will Jacks - After some good starts in T20Is, it was important for Jacks to deliver in a home ODI and he hit seven fours and four sixes in Saturday's innings.

Sam Hain - Despite it being his international debut on Saturday, the middle-order batsman looked very much at home with only Will Jacks hitting more than his 89 from 82 balls.

Rehan Ahmed – The teenage spin bowler continues to impress in international cricket. In the second ODI, he dismissed Harry Tector, George Dockrell, Andy McBrine and Mark Adair.

Ireland Key Players

Harry Tector - With five fours in his innings, the impressive ODI batsman looked well on his way to another half-century in the format before his dismissal on Saturday. He will want to get bigger in this game.

George Dockrell – The 31-year-old put in a brilliant performance in the second ODI. He dismissed Ben Duckett, Will Jacks and Jamie Smith before scoring 43 with the bat.

Josh Little – It was a very disappointing Saturday afternoon for the left-arm opening bowler who conceded 82 runs. However, he has the mentality to bounce back in this game.
