Zimbabwe are all set to square off against Ireland in Match 4 of the T20 World Cup 2022 Round 1 qualifiers at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. Both these sides possess quality players and it will be an intense battle between them with not much to differentiate. 

Zimbabwe have had some inspiring performances in the recent past, including the historic ODI win in Australia. The Craig Ervine-led side can be a big threat on their day and they have a list of match-winners who have stepped up in crucial times. They did make decent efforts in the loss against Sri Lanka in the warm up fixture, however, this is expected to be a much closer game. 

On the other hand, the Ireland is a quite settled side and the youngsters have been impressive in the recent times. They suffered a close defeat at the hands of Namibia in the warm-up fixture, however, they will fancy their chances against Zimbabwe.
