IRE vs WI, 2nd T20I Match Winner Prediction

Match Winner: West Indies

In the last five T20Is between these two sides, two contests were won by Ireland while West Indies managed to win only one encounter, with two games ending in a no-result. That said, the current West Indies side boasts a better-equipped all-round unit that can challenge the Irish side.

Though, we can expect a good contest between these two sides, the Caribbean team is anticipated to come out on top in this thrilling affair to take a 1-0 lead with one more game to go in the three-match series.
