The anthems are done. Pakistan in a huddle. Abbas has been inducted into the side. He can be exiciting. Pakistan bowlers won't mind bowling first. The deck has been under covers for so long.

We've made a couple of changes to our Expert XI. Do check out our Fantasy Handbook before locking in your teams....

Teams:

Ireland (Playing XI): Paul Stirling(c), Andrew Balbirnie, Lorcan Tucker(w), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Joshua Little, Benjamin White

Pakistan (Playing XI): Mohammad Rizwan(w), Saim Ayub, Babar Azam(c), Fakhar Zaman, Usman Khan, Shadab Khan, Imad Wasim, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Amir

Paul Stirling: That's what we would have done (bowl first). Under the covers for a while, there'll be a little bit up top. Hopefully we can through that and put a score on the board.

Babar Azam: We'll have a bowl first. Last three days, the pitch has been covered, little bit moisture on it.

Pakistan have won the toss and have opted to field

The captains are ready for the toss.

Pitch Report | Ramiz Raja and Waqar Younis: "Right now, it's not ideal conditions, you see and feel the wetness underneath your feet (outfield). Dimensions - 78m straight down the ground, 62m and 67m square. It's not a perfect pitch because it has been sweating under the covers. The ground staff has done a wonderful job. Pitch looks pretty decent, there's a little bit of moisture in it, a little bit of grass on it and I think it'll play quite nicely. You can see the patches where there is a little bit of greenery, there'll be a little bit for the fast bowlers. Overall, it looks decent. More than the grass, it's the dampness underneath. It's soft, so the ball might seam around, so it might be difficult for the batters. Win the toss and bowl first."

Today's game is a dead rubber from outside. But both teams are itching to prove a point or two. The loser of the game will finish last on the table. And no one wants to own the wooden spoon. And then there is this possibility of a no contest thanks to all the rains which has left the outfield in a poor state. The incessant and fickle rains have already impacted this group. But both these teams would want some action before bowing out of the competition.

Pakistan and losing to minnows in big tournaments isn't new! They lost to Bangladesh in the 1999 WC. Lost to Ireland in the 2007 WC. Then lost to Zimbabwe in the last T20 World Cup and were outsmarted by USA in this edition. Ireland on the other hand could have done better. They lost to Canada and were thwarted by India. That hasn't helped their cause. They came into the WC with good preparations but have come a cropper here. That would hurt the men in green from Europe.
