In contrast, Ireland lost their previous 50-over assignment 2-1 on the tour of Zimbabwe in February. Both teams are missing key players heading into the challenge. While the tourists have Shimron Hetmyer absent due to his IPL duties, the hosts will be without pacer Mark Adair because of a knee injury.

Royals' bowling has not been up to the mark: Dravid
Rajasthan Royals' batting crumbled under pressure while pursuing a target of 220 against Punjab Kings, stumbling in a run chase for the fifth time in IPL 2025, but head coach Rahul Dravid felt the bowlers shared the burden of the side's wretched run this season. 'It's been one of those seasons where we always feel that we probably gave 15-20 runs extra. If we look at the season, bowling has not been up to the mark. Neither in taking wickets nor in stopping runs. We've chased nearly 200 every game, even then we've managed to get close. 'Shimron Hetmyer at the back end, maybe missed out this season, which was a bit tough on us. But that can happen. He's done so well for us in that role in the past three seasons. That's the nature of the game. I don't really think we felt the need to tweak it [batting order] too much,' Dravid said. Kings' spin-bowling coach Sunil Joshi praised Harpreet Brar whose three scalps allowed the side to rein the opposition in despite conceding 89 runs while picking up a sole wicket in the PowerPlay. 'Brar has been consistent throughout the season. Last year also we saw how he bowled. Time and again, he's proven himself when he has had the opportunity. He was there to perform and got the wickets for us,' Joshi said. He also allayed any concerns around Shreyas Iyer suffering an injury after the PBKS captain was subbed out in the second innings. 'It was just a niggle when he was batting. That's it.'

England v West Indies: Tourists leave Shimron Hetmyer out of ODI squad
Batter Shimron Hetmyer has been left out of West Indies' one-day international squad to play England and Ireland this month. Left-hander Hetmyer, currently playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and one of West Indies' most high-profile players, featured in the Windies' 2-1 win over an understrength England last year. He missed a series against Bangladesh that followed through illness and was replaced by 27-year-old Amir Jangoo, who made a debut century in the third match. West Indies play a three-match one-day international series in Ireland from 21-25 May, before matches in England on 29 May, 1 June and 3 June. Three T20s against England follow from 6 June. It will be the first white-ball series for England since Harry Brook was named permanent white-ball captain. There is no place in West Indies' squad for Nicholas Pooran, who has not played an ODI since 2023. The touring party is largely the same as the one that beat England, with batter Shai Hope captain, and Alzarri Joseph, Jayden Seales and Shamar Joseph among the seam bowlers. Former Ireland all-rounder Kevin O'Brien will work with Hope's side during the Ireland leg of the tour. "These matches form a critical component towards the 2027 World Cup and there are signs of the team building consistency following the series sweep against Bangladesh and the win over England late last year," said coach Darren Sammy. "We expect the conditions to be challenging but we are creating a culture and mindset which emphasize playing the brand of cricket that is taking us closer to some of our overall objectives."
