The wicket the Nassau County International cricket stadium has been in discussion for all the wrong reasons. It has been a mine field for the batters. None of the batters who have played here has looked comfortable. On the other hand, the bowlers are having great outings here. We have so far seen four innings on this wicket in T20 World Cup 2024, and in none of them the 100-mark has been breached.

The on-paper strength of the teams indicate that this could be a pretty close match. However, waiting for the toss and having more players from the chasing team could e a good choice.
Batting will be very difficult in the first innings of the match. So, the team chasing will be the favourites to win the game.
This top-order batter was one of the reasons behind Canada’s competitive display in the first game against the USA. Navneet Dhaliwal’s form makes him a good choice for the match.
Dillon Heyliger bowled a very efficient spell on a batting friendly track in the first game. He could be a highly rewarding option for the fantasy contests, especially with the expected playing conditions.
Tucker has been in a good form in the build up to this tournament. Even though he did not score too many in the game against India, the form and momentum that he has make him a good option for the fantasy contests.
One of the main bowlers of the Irish attack, Mark Adair will be a very important fantasy pick, especially if they field first. Adair can also be pretty handy with the bat lower down the order and there are chances that he will give you valuable points in the both innings.
The explosive Canadian opener did not fire in the first match. However, Aaron Johnson is the team’s trump card in this format. If he gets his rhythm, Johnson can score big even in difficult conditions and turn out to be a decisive choice in the fantasy contests.
The left-arm medium pacer will be an asset for Ireland, especially on a wicket where there will be help for the bowlers. Little could be a valuable pick for the game giving you decisive lead in the fantasy contests.
Given the nature of the wicket and the strength of the teams, a 1-5-4-1 or a 1-5-3-2 combination could be rewarding.
