Ireland will take on Pakistan in a three-match T20 series starting Friday, May 10 in Dublin. Ireland will be without their lead seamer Josh Little but these three matches will provide a more than a decent dress-rehearsal for the Paul Stirling-led side for the T20 World Cup where they will face Pakistan as one of the four teams in Group A. Little has been allowed to complete his IPL formalities with the Gujarat Titans.
Pakistan, on the other hand, had a below-average show against the New Zealand B team at home and will be looking to iron out a few flaws going ahead in what is going to be a long couple of months for the Men in Green. Pakistan will miss Mohammad Amir, who is yet to receive his Ireland visa but with Haris Rauf returning, there is some good news as well. After three games against Ireland, Pakistan will take on England in four matches before the World Cup.
