IRE vs ZIM 3rd T20I Predictions & Betting Tips

Zimbabwe is ready to face Ireland in the 3rd T20I Match of the five-match T20I series on Wednesday, 1st September. The game will be played at the Bready Cricket Club Ground in Magheramason, Bready. I have handpicked three of the best betting tips from the IRE vs ZIM 3rd T20I head-to-head match for you.

Zimbabwe made a great start to the tournament, but Ireland bounced back in the 2nd T20I. After Zimbabwe won the first match by just 3 runs, Ireland came back to win the 2nd match by 7 wickets. This was made possible due to a 60-run knock by the evergreen Kevin O’Brien, who hit 7 fours and 1 six in the match. Shane Getkate also deserves some credit, as he scalped 3 wickets in 4 overs at an economy of just 5.0. George Dockrell and Paul Stirling also got 30-plus scores which helped Ireland seal the win.

The upcoming match might go either way, although the oddsmakers are favouring Ireland due to their simple victory. There are a few betting markets that will definitely deliver us wins and I have built up the best markets from the game for you. Take a look at the top IRE vs ZIM match predictions and betting tips from the game to make a lot of money.

IRE vs ZIM Player Bets:

The player betting section features a player who will definitely score over the target from Zimbabwe and a player who will fail to score from Ireland. Take a look at the top IRE vs ZIM player betting tips.

Wesley Madhevere to score over 17.5 runs

The first bet I have picked for you is for the Zimbabwean opener who has often come to show tremendous skill with the bat. Wesley Madhvere failed to score in the first match against Ireland and got dismissed with just a single run to his name. He did manage to make a comeback and score 21 runs in the 2nd T20I though. He was the third-highest scorer in the Zimbabwe squad with only Milton Shumba and Ryan Burl scoring more than him. Wesley Madhevere debuted for Zimbabwe just last year against Bangladesh. He has scored 377 runs from 15 T20I’s at 26.92.

Wesley Madhevere has had terrific recent form though, with scores over the target in 4 of his last 5 games. He has hit 4 half-centuries in his career, and 3 of those were scored in his last 6 matches. His best form comes in the third game of the series with an average of 40.66 from 3 such matches. He has opened in 7 matches and got 245 runs from them, at an average of 35.0 which is double the target. This is one of the top IRE vs ZIM match predictions. Dafabet.com is offering odds of 1.87 for Wesley Madhevere to score over 17.5 runs.

Andy Balbirnie to score under 20.5 runs

The next bet is for the Irish skipper who has not been able to perform at all in recent times. Andy Balbirnie has played 49 matches since his debut in 2015. He has scored 1011 runs from 44 innings at an average of 24.07. He has only managed to hit 4 half-centuries in his career and his recent form has been terrible. He has played a total of 5 games this year, with only 66 runs from them. This averages 13.20 and Andy Balbirnie didn’t manage to score over the target in 3 of his 5 innings.

Andy Balbirnie was only made the captain of the team last year, and he has 221 runs from his 11 games. At an average of 20.09 as the skipper, it is only this year his performance has started to dwindle. Andy Balbirnie has never been able to score well in tournaments played by just two teams. He has played in 25 matches in two-team tournaments and scored just 369 runs at 16.77. He managed to score 28* runs against Zimbabwe in 2019 but hasn’t been able to repeat the feat in the two games played in this series. This is another top IRE vs ZIM betting odds to go for from the game. Dafabet.com has offered odds of 1.87 for Andy Balbirnie to score under 20.5 runs.

Ireland vs Zimbabwe Team Bets

While there are a lot of great player betting markets for this game, there is one team market that exceeds expectations. Zimbabwe held the upper hand in hitting sixes even before this tournament. Take a look at the top IRE vs ZIM team betting odds to win from.

Zimbabwe to hit the most sixes in the match

The last bet I have picked for you has winning odds which can make you rich by just putting your money on this market. Even though Zimbabwe couldn’t win the last match against Ireland, hitting sixes is a field they have dominated against a lot of teams. In the last 5 games, Zimbabwe have hit a total of 33 sixes. This is a massive average of 6.60 sixes per game and they have come out on top in this area in all the games. Ireland, on the other hand, have hit 18 sixes in their last 5 games, at an average of 3.6 sixes per game. In essence, Zimbabwe have hit sixes at a rate of 3.0 sixes per game more than Ireland on an average.

Not only have Zimbabwe hit more sixes in their last 5 games, they have also conceded at a slower rate. While Ireland have conceded 29 sixes from 5 games at 5.80, Zimbabwe have conceded just 23 sixes at 4.60. Ireland have conceded more sixes than their opponents in all their last 5 games, while Zimbabwe have hit more sixes than their opponents in all the 5 games. This betting tip gives you the chance to earn more than double your money from the IRE vs ZIM head to head match. Dafabet.com is offering odds of 2.45 for Zimbabwe to hit the most sixes in the game.
