Ireland all but out of the tournament but hopeful of another big scalp in last clash of the Super 12s

The Blackcaps’ spinners, Ish Sodhi and Mitchell Santner, present a challenge to Ireland’s right-handed dominant batting line-up given the direction they turn the ball. That said, in Andrew Balbirnie, Paul Stirling, Lorcan Tucker and Curtis Campher, Ireland have four players in their top five who generally excel against spin.
