AFG vs IRE 2nd ODI Dream 11 Team Prediction- Wicket-keeper
Even though Mohammad Shahzad did not bat well in the first game, but still he can be considered a better option for wicket-keeper over Ireland Gary Wilson. Shahzad opens up the batting for Afghanistan and possesses good hitting abilities.

It is recommended to select 2 batsmen each from Afghanistan and Ireland. Paul Stirling and William Porterfield played a fine knock of 71 and 53 runs respectively to give Ireland a competitive total of 210 on a bowling track. The other two Afghan batsmen should be Asghar Afghan and Hazratullah Zazai.
