Australia vs Ireland: T20I Records and Stats at The Gabba, Brisbane

Australia would be seeking for a win that would enhance their NRR rather than just a win. A win would put them in a rather comfortable position in the T20 world cup.

In the T20 World Cup encounter that will take place as the 31st game in 2022, Australia and Ireland will face one another. Australia rebounded from a humiliating loss to New Zealand by defeating Asia Cup champions Sri Lanka, but their last match against England was called off owing to the damp ground before a ball was even played. While Ireland lost to Sri Lanka and defeated England, their match with Afghanistan was also called off due to rain. As a result, this game assumes a considerably greater significance in what is rapidly becoming a group of death.

Ireland’s historic triumph against England at the MCG, maybe their best T20I victory in men’s cricket, has given Andrew Balbirnie’s team a chance to put up a surprise in Group 1. That opportunity, though, will be lost if the Irish are unable to defeat a powerful Australian team. Australia was in jeopardy as a result of their crushing loss to New Zealand in their first group game, as well as the impact it had on their NRR. As a result, Australia would be seeking for a win that would enhance their NRR rather than just a win. A win would put them in a rather comfortable position in the T20 world cup.
