AFG vs IRE Dream11 Prediction
Afghanistan are coming to this Test match off a decent performance in the only Test against Sri Lanka recently. They lost the game by 10 wickets but the Afghans displayed the fight with both bat and ball. They will take a lot of confidence from that game and will be eyeing a win in the conditions favourable to them.
On the other hand, Ireland last played a Test match in June 2023 against England. The Irish team lost that game by 10 wickets. They will be looking to put up a solid performance against an inexperienced team in the Test arena to notch up a win.

The wicket is on the flatter side and it is expected to assist the batters for the first two days. It will break as the game progresses and the spinners will grow in the game. The batting will get difficult from the third day onwards. Hence, the team winning the toss is expected to bat first.
