The second T20I between Ireland and West Indies is set to be played on Saturday, June 14, at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Belfast. This match marks a vital opportunity for both teams to assert control in the three-match series, especially after the opening game was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to persistent rain.
A fresh start for both teams after a washed-out opener
With the series still level at 0-0, Saturday’s encounter becomes even more significant. Neither side has gained momentum yet, and both will be eager to register a win to strengthen their grip on the series and edge closer to securing the series trophy. Given the unpredictability of Irish weather and the importance of each remaining match, expect both teams to bring their A-game to Belfast. For the West Indies, T20I series offers a chance to salvage pride after a poor showing against England recently. Meanwhile, Ireland, playing at home, will be determined to capitalize on familiar conditions and challenge a higher-ranked side. With two games left and the series wide open, Saturday’s match could be decisive in shaping the outcome.

Civil Service Cricket Club Pitch Report:
The surface at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Belfast typically provides a balanced contest between bat and ball. Fast bowlers are likely to benefit early on, particularly if conditions are overcast, making the initial overs with the new ball vital. As the match unfolds, the pitch tends to settle, offering batters greater freedom to play their strokes. Spinners may find some assistance later in the game with slight grip available off the surface. A total in the region of 160 could prove challenging, depending on the conditions. The toss is expected to be significant, especially if weather disruptions come into play.
