England vs Ireland | Today Match Prediction | Head to Head | Betting Tips
The historic Lord’s ground is set to host an intriguing one-off Test match between host England and Ireland. While England will see this as good preparation ahead of the Ashes, for Ireland this is another opportunity to cause an upset and register their first-ever Test win.
Match Odds: England are overwhelming 1/8 favourites to beat Ireland who are rank outsiders at 16/1 according to top cricket betting tips sites. A draw is 7/1.
When and Where: Thursday 1st June, Lord’s, London. Play starts at 11 am local time.
Pitch Report: The Lord’s slope will provide plenty of assistance to the pace bowlers. Batsmen will need to spend time in the middle to get set on a surface that is expected to have good carry and bounce. Unlikely to take much turn which is good news for the tourists who lack a frontline spinner.
Head to Head: The only previous Test between these sides was also played at Lord’s in 2019. England ran out 143 run winners in a match dominated by the pace bowlers.
Teams Preview: England have rested Anderson and Robinson but Broad will lead an inexperienced attack. Much will depend on how Potts and debutant Tongue go. Ireland will look to their experienced top order to lay a platform but their bowling lacks penetration.
