Tomorrow India is going to play with Ireland on their 3rd match. Already Ireland has made a huge expectation by winning their last match with England earlier this week, although it was a huge run chase, they fought and won the match.
Will Ireland play the same way as last or will India win the match?

That would be too much to expect from Ireland . Winning one good match doesn't make it a very good team . And with India being a very strong team , India has a better chance of winning . With batting giants like Shewag and Sachin , India takes a bigger bite . There are significant dangers lurking in India's bowling line-up too. Ireland's XI is likely to have no less than five left-handers in it, and despite the docile playing surface, the challenge of countering multiple offspinners - and possibly Piyush Chawla's googly too - will be a daunting task.There was similar talk before India's World Cup opener against Bangladesh, but the imperious ease of their eventual win made that sound like a misguided fantasy. While India's opinion of Ireland may well have changed in the last week, they will expect nothing less on Sunday.

Hi beachdude,
I agree with you that one big win would not mean that Ireland would be the same as it was against England. Though India is a little bit weak in bowling department it has a strong batting line.
So we can make prediction about tomorrow's match between Ind and Ireland.

Well, Ireland is weak in bowling as well as India. But Indian seemers can do wonders with their experience so as Zaheer did in the last match, I surely can say India have all the chances of giving a stunning target of 400 plus score if they bat first.

I don't think that Ireland can win the match. If India bats first, Ireland can make it closer than if they bat first. Ireland is like most minnow nations they are better with the bat than with the bowling. India will need atleast 250 to feel comfortable in winning the game which should be no problem for India to reach.

India need to be very careful against them, Ireland has shown, for what they are capable of, even though the upset cant be expect every time from a weak team, but india need to have a cautioned approach when they will play against them tomorrow. For India it should be a game, which they expect nothing more than a win. So we have to play well, our bowling need to show some talent. Need to show the critics that for what our bowlers are capable of. Good Luck Indian Team.

Tomorrow's match between India and Ireland is crucial for India. One win and the other tied India have to defeat Ireland with a good margin.
But the way Ireland players are all arms India can not take it easily. Because Ireland's win would pave their way to quarter and India would be almost out of the reckoning.
I think India would have an upper hand over Ireland. Waiting for tomorrow's match.

i am sure dhoni & co have woken up after two shockers in one of which they were part of it and then england were part of both versus with India and Ireland. ironically there is a coincidence england had a tough time with both the teams which starts with the letter I. And there is another coincidence which is gonna take place tomorrow as India will be facing a team which ends with LAND. so i guess we can only hope the coincidence remains were it is but India gets a different result as opposed to england.
