Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for 1st T20I of the Ireland vs West Indies T20I series 2025 between IRE vs WI to be played in Belfast.
After a disappointing tour of England, the West Indies will be back in action for their Ireland tour. The three-match ODI series between both the sides, which took place last month, ended in a 1-1 draw. But after that, the West Indies suffered a whitewash in ODIs and T20Is in England.
Hence, they will be looking to bounce back from that defeat and do well here. The first T20I is scheduled to be played on Thursday (12th June) at Civil Service Cricket Club, Belfast.
Shai Hope and his men will be hoping for a turnaround. They have a good team, and will fancy their chances. But it won’t be easy to beat Ireland in their home conditions.
