The batsmen of the Ireland team are currently fighting for victory in the second ODI match between Zimbabwe and Ireland today. The Zimbabwe team won the first ODI match brilliantly and they are leading the series, so in today's match, the Ireland team must bat responsibly to win. Today, the Zimbabwe team has given a target of 245 runs, although the batting performance of the Ireland team is very good at the moment, at the moment, 47 runs are needed in 66 balls, it is a very easy match. Paul Stirling is batting brilliantly as the captain of the team and he is batting patiently to score a century and by winning today's match, they will equalize the series result.

It would be an easy win for the Ireland team. They now need only 4 runs and anytime they will make these runs and level the series 1-1. More than two overs still left in the game.

Almost everyone played with responsibility. Ireland captain leading from the front and made 89 runs. He missed his century by 11 runs as he was Ngarava, it was a soft dismissal. He must be disappointed with that but he would be happy seeing his team succeed today. Curtis Campher also played a good 63 runs innings. Now we will have the final match on 18 feb, and it will be the decider of the series.

In the end, Ireland defeated Zimbabwe by 6 wickets. Zimbabwe set Ireland a target of 246, which Ireland achieved very easily. Every player from Ireland performed quite well, even though Zimbabwe was expected to play well at the Zimbabwean venue. Ireland's Paul Stirling top-scored with 89 runs, while Curtis Campher was the second highest scorer with 63 runs. Curtis Campher was declared the Man of the Match for his three wickets and 63 runs in today's match. Both teams are level on points in the three-match ODI series, winning one match each. The third match is expected to be very important for both teams as a win for Zimbabwe will clinch the series and a win for Ireland will clinch the series.

Everyone might be waiting for 20th February because there is a big match of Champions Trophy on 20th February where Bangladesh will play against India. Although Bangladesh is a much weaker team compared to India, millions of Indian fans and Bangladeshi fans will be watching the India Bangladesh match. Bangladesh may not be able to win against India now, but in the last few major tournaments Bangladesh has played against India, every time Bangladesh has given tough competition to India. The team that Bangladesh has taken to the Champions Trophy, we hope that the core 11 players of this team will be fielded against India and Bangladeshi cricketers will definitely perform well against India. Bangladesh has already unveiled their official jersey ahead of the Champions Trophy which is a much talked about jersey as compared to other tournaments Bangladesh has added some innovations in the Champions Trophy jersey.
Best wishes for Bangladesh.

If Bangladesh can compete in this match, then it will be great and if they cannot do that then there is a big chance that the match will be completely one-sided. Recently India team is very much strong, where the big teams have failed, how will the small teams resist them. Even if the Bangladesh team can do well at their own venue, I don't think they will do very well abroad. Especially in the Champions Trophy, it will be difficult for them to win a match ‍as the senior players in the team is low. If they have a good bowling action, then they can restrict India to relatively few runs but I don't expect much from their batting site. If Bangladesh can somehow beat India, then they will move ahead in the remaining matches in this Champions Trophy.
