Ireland is going to be a real threat to anyone , on paper they are very good and have a good core of experienced World Cup players . The O’Briens , porterfield, Joyce , Stirling and rankin are all class players and play with a lot heart and the never give up attitude.stirling on his day is just as destructive as anyone around the world , love watching him bat.

Yea the Irish have a very strong side, and their pace bowling has a couple of nippy additions this year.
The sides here are seriously spicy and Zimbabwe are going to have to be massively on their game. Even the scottish look strong

Afghans, Irish, Scots, even the Dutch are going to be hungry. Perhaps even Nepal although they may not have much ability to eat. Could be trouble for any sides who are always full.

European Sides will play most of their games in Harare, where pacers do get some assistance, whereas Zimbabwe will play three Asian sides, in slow and spin friendly track of Bulawayo, matter to think as Zimbabwe lost 41 wickets in 9 odis to the spinners in recently concluded Sub Continent Tour.
