These two sides have played 12 T20Is against each other. While the UAE came out on top on seven instances, Ireland could win only five games. Nevertheless, we can expect the Irish side to continue their winning momentum after bagging a comfortable win over the UAE side in the first T20I, clean-sweeping the hosts.
