Ireland Preview
After winning the first ODI last month and seeing the second washed out, Ireland couldn’t close out the series in the third. Now, with two rain-affected T20Is, this is their final shot. Led by Paul Stirling, Ireland will rely heavily on the top order. Stirling himself, along with Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector, need to fire if they are to chase or post a competitive total.
Ireland’s strength lies in their familiarity with local conditions and the recent form of bowlers like Mark Adair and Barry McCarthy. George Dockrell, as a floating middle-order option, may be used strategically if overs are reduced.
This is a mentally challenging match for the hosts, and a rare opportunity to defeat a Test-playing nation in a T20I series on home soil.
West Indies Preview
West Indies’ UK tour has been disastrous: a whitewash in England and a tied ODI series in Ireland. To make matters worse, Nicholas Pooran announced his retirement, adding to the instability. But hope remains with a squad boasting plenty of match-winners.
Captain Shai Hope will need to anchor the innings while stroke-players like Evin Lewis, Johnson Charles, and Keacy Carty add the firepower. Their bowling looks stronger on paper — with Jason Holder, Alzarri Joseph, and Akeal Hosein forming a potent mix of pace and spin.
West Indies must channel their frustration into one strong performance to salvage the tour and return home with a series win.

Pitch Report
The Bready Cricket Club pitch is traditionally a balanced surface with some assistance for seamers early on. However, slower bowlers come into play as the match progresses. The short boundaries offer value for well-timed shots, but timing is critical on this two-paced surface.
Weather Report
Rain remains a concern. Overcast skies and intermittent showers are predicted for Sunday. A shortened game is likely, with bowlers expected to get assistance due to moisture on the pitch.
