BAN vs IRE Pitch Report of Bir Shrestho Flt Lt Matiur Rahman Stadium:
The wicket at Bir Shrestho Flt Lt Matiur Rahman Stadium during the first BAN vs IRE T20I is expected to be good for batting, which it always has been, with the highest score at this ground between these teams being 207 runs.
Batsmen will enjoy batting on this surface as the ball is coming onto the bat well, and they can also rely on the bounce, which will be uniform, which makes for a high-scoring clash.
If we talk about the record of number of wins while batting and bowling at this venue in T20I cricket, no team has got a clear advantage.
In this format of the game, out of 33 matches played at this ground, the team batting first has won 17 matches, while the team chasing has been successful in winning the remaining 16 matches.
However, it would be a wise decision for the captain who wins the toss to bowl first, as dew can play a significant role in the second innings of the game, with no chances of rain throughout the match.
Having said that, merely winning the toss will not guarantee victory for any team as they will have to bowl well and restrict the opponent to a low score, which brings us to the question of what would be a good score when batting first on this surface.
Here the average score of the first innings is 146 runs, while the average score of the second innings is 127.
As per the above statistics, the team batting first should aim to score 170-180 runs to stay ahead in the game.
While batting first in this stadium, the team should score 20-25 runs extra than the average score, this is to take into account the effect of dew while chasing the target, which will make it easier to bat.
All things considered, both teams will want to be at their best in an effort to win the match and will have the resources to do so.
conclusion
Bangladesh would like to continue the winning streak against Ireland by winning the two-match Test series and would also like to make a winning start in the T20 series.
On the other hand, Ireland would like to register their first win on the Bangladesh tour and by doing so, take a 1-0 lead in the T20 series.
