AFGH vs IRE Dream11 Prediction & Fantasy Team | Ireland vs Afghanistan Match

Ireland emerged as the comprehensive winners of the 1st One Day International against Afghanistan. It was a result that stunned many as Afghanistan are considered as the superior team. Nonetheless, Ireland used their home conditions to their advantage as they tamed the Asian team to a score of just 138 runs to register a win by 72 runs. Understandably, Afghanistan will want to respond with a win immediately and finish the tournament on a positive note before the world cup.
