IRE vs AFG Dream11 Prediction: Afghanistan have comeback strongly after losing the first two T20Is to take the series to the decider. They are a much stronger side compared to Ireland and never must have lost the first two games but they rectified their team and made some good changes and have reaped rewards with 2 back to back wins. Ireland would be disappointed if they lose this series as they had a firm grip over AFG after first two games.
