Today is the 3rd and final T20 match between Zimbabwe and Ireland. Zimbabwe leading the series with 1-0 as the first match was abandoned due to rain. In fact we have the 2nd match interrupted by rain too but thankfully it was finished. I hope there will be no rain today at Harare. Zimbabwe would want to win the T20 series , they already have won the ODI series. On the other hand, Ireland win can only make them draw the series.
Today will be the last match of the T20 series between Ireland and Zimbabwe cricket teams, meaning this match is going to be held between them. They are trying to play well in this cricket series, but it has not been easy for the Ireland cricket team to win a any match in this cricket series so far.
Based on the result of the second match, it might be easy to guess that the most pressure will be on Ireland in the third match. I personally think that the Ireland cricket team has much better batsmen such as Lorcan Tucker, Harry Tector, Curtis Campher. If these players cannot play well in today's match, then we can clearly see that the result of today's match will be in Zimbabwe's favor.
Today's third T20I match is the most competitive for the Zimbabwe team, because the first T20I match was postponed, the Zimbabwe team performed the best in the second match. So I think today's third T20I match is the most challenging, because if the Zimbabwe team wins today's match, they will be able to win the T20I series, they have won the ODI series.
So today's match must be performed well from the beginning, and the Ireland team must be attacked from both bowling and batting, then the Zimbabwe team can win this match easily.
In the final match of this cricket series, the Zimbabwe cricket team tried to start a little better than in the other matches. But yesterday's match was stopped due to rain, which meant neither team got a chance to play well. Another match in this cricket series between them was abandoned, every match in the ODI series was played at the same stadium, but not a single match was abandoned there.
Similarly even though every match of the T20 series was held in the same stadium, the match was abandoned. If it were possible to play the third match, then perhaps there would have been a slight chance for the Ireland cricket team to draw this series. Anyway congratulations to the Zimbabwe team for winning two series.
