England vs Ireland
England (Match Odds- 1.12)
Preview
Several England players who participated in the series against New Zealand have been rested. This new-look England team, which also includes three uncapped players, will be coached by Zak Crawley. All three of Crawley’s career ODI appearances—three total—came against Pakistan in the Covid-19-affected series in 2021. His first time serving as England’s captain in any capacity.
The key batter to watch out for in this series will be Harry Brook, who was named to England’s World Cup roster. Over the course of his three outings in the New Zealand series, he scored 37 runs off of 68 balls. The gifted young player, though, has showed a lot of potential in a variety of forms and is keen to show that he merits a position in the World Cup team. In at least one of the three games, we anticipate Brook to take a significant beating.
The potential of Phil Salt is also intriguing. In his 14 ODI matches thus far, the wicketkeeper batsman has scored 460 runs at an average of 38.33 and a strike rate of 125.
There will be several fresh faces in England’s bowling as well. Along with Luke Wood, Craig Overton, and Matthew Potts, seam-bowling alternatives include Brydon Carse and George Scrimshaw. The team’s primary spinner is Rehan Ahmed. The 19-year-old leg-spinner will appreciate the chance to get some crucial experience because he is still relatively new to international cricket.
Full Squad:
Zak Crawley (c), Ben Duckett (vc), Rehan Ahmed, Joe Root (first ODI only), Brydon Carse, Sam Hain, Will Jacks, Craig Overton, Matthew Potts, Phil Salt, George Scrimshaw, Jamie Smith, Luke Wood.

Ireland (Match Odds- 6.30)
Preview
For the England series, Ireland has put up a strong team. Paul Stirling, the team’s most seasoned batter, will serve as its captain. Stirling has been in excellent form recently, scoring 346 runs in his previous 10 games. Andrew Balbirnie will start with Stirling, according to Ireland. They are hoping to build the duo into a more reliable opening option for 50-over cricket since they think the two get along so well.
This year, Balbirnie has participated in 13 ODIs and has scored 363 runs at an average of 36.30 and a strike rate of 73.33.
The third player in this series will be Curtis Campher. He has been a pillar of Ireland’s middle order for a while, but we think he will contribute in this new capacity as well.
Another hitter to watch out for is Harry Tector. The middle-order hitter has been consistently exploding runs recently, averaging over 49 in his past 10 games.
Mark Adair and Josh Little will be Ireland’s two best bowlers. The two seam bowlers should have ample help from the surface, especially early on, and they should be able to pick up a few early wickets. In his last 10 games, Adair has taken 20 wickets at a strike rate of 24.4. He is expected to be Ireland’s best bowler in this series, in our opinion.
Full Squad:
Andrew Balbirnie, Harry Tector, Paul Stirling (c), Gareth Delany, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Andy McBrine, Neil Rock, Lorcan Tucker, Mark Adair, Graham Hume, Joshua Little, Barry McCarthy, Theo van Woerkom, Craig Young.

England vs Ireland Head to Head
There have been 13 One Day International matches between England and Ireland. Out of these 13 games, England has triumphed on 10 occasions, while Ireland has done so twice.
England vs Ireland Toss Prediction
The pursuing side has triumphed in 26 of the 46 One Day Internationals played at Headingley. In addition, rain is predicted for the game day. As a result, the team that wins the toss will probably field first.
England vs Ireland Pitch Report
The genuine surface that Headingley frequently provides typically helps the hitters a bit more. Similar to most English venues, the first few overs will also provide some assistance for seam bowlers. In addition, rain is predicted for the day, which will cause clouds. The seam bowlers will be able to obtain reliable movement off the air as a result. The batters may settle down and begin playing their strokes, though, as the ball begins to soften.

England vs Ireland Match Report
In 13 ODDI matches, Ireland has just twice managed to defeat England. Given that they will be playing an English team with a fresh look, this is their greatest chance to notch a couple more victories over their neighbours. However, even without many of their normal players, England’s batting still appears to be strong. Ireland will have trouble if people like Brook, Crawley, and Salt get going. Despite this, the Irish batting lineup should be able to score high totals against this bowling lineup’s relative inexperience. Ireland should put up a good fight, in our opinion. The overall home advantage, though, favours England.
England is predicted to win the match at the odds of 1.12
