Ireland Ireland is set to lock horns with England in a three-match T20I series. They are coming into this series on the back of poor form; they lost their series 0-1 to the West Indies in June earlier this year. Paul Striling-led side will look to move on from that heartbreak and now take on England with their full confidence. With Jacob Bethell at the helm, facing England is not going to be an easy task.
