Ireland Preview
Despite a heavy defeat in Sylhet in the first test, Ireland takes positives to Mirpur for the second Test. Their batsmen showed promise, with Cade Carmichael hitting 59 on debut, Paul Stirling top-scored in the first innings, and veteran Andy McBrine made a second-innings half-century. With the ball, Matthew Humphreys took five wickets in the first innings, while Barry McCarty and McBrine also impressed. So, at the moment, Ireland aim to regain confidence and challenge the hosts after failing to cross 300 in either innings and a lackluster bowling performance.
Key Players: Lorcan Tucker, Andy McBrine, Barry McCarthy, Graham Hume, Matthew Humphreys
