T20 World Cup 2026: IRE vs ZIM Match 32 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket, Head to Head

On Tuesday, February 17, Ireland will play Zimbabwe in Match No. 32 at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Pallekele. In the current ICC T20 World Cup 2026, the Lorcan Tucker-led squad will try to maintain their winning streak and their chances of qualifying.

Following defeats to Australia and Sri Lanka, Ireland defeated Oman by a commanding 96 runs. The "giant-killers" of the tournament have been Zimbabwe. With a victory in the forthcoming round, they would most likely secure their spot in the Super 8s after shocking Australia in their most recent match.
