Bangladesh Playing XI vs Ireland- 2nd T20I, Ireland Tour of Bangladesh 2025:

Openers: Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Parvez Hossain Emon

Bangladesh would want to take full advantage of their home conditions and deliver a strong performance in the second T20I against Ireland and break the four-match losing streak that the team is on at home.

The home team would rely on its openers to get Bangladesh off to a good start both while batting first and while chasing.

The opening pair of Parvez Hossain Emon and Tanzid Hasan Tamim would wish to fulfill their role as a partnership against an inexperienced yet talented bowling attack, which can turn the game in Ireland's favour if it gets things right.

Along with adding crucial runs at the top of the order as a partnership, Tanzid and Parvez would be entrusted to get going individually as well to gain confidence for the next couple of games.

Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Saif Hassan, Litton Das (c / wk), Towhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Rishad Hossain

The openers will be followed by a middle order, which is filled with batters that are supremely talented but need to be consistent with their performances in this format of the game.

The likes of Litton Das, Tawhid Hridoy, and Jaker Ali have been a part of the T20I setup for quite a while now, but haven't been able to build on the couple of good performances that they can put on.

The team management would want them to get rid of that inconsistency and pile on runs starting from the ongoing T20I series till the 2026 T20 World Cup

If the top five batters are able to get their act together and score runs till the next few months, Bangladesh will have a good chance of breaching the 200-run mark more often than not.

Bowlers: Nasum Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman

The hosts might employ the plan of spin to win, as they have done on so many occasions in the past, the execution of which will be done by the duo of Nasum Ahmed and Rishad Hossain.

We might see a spinner taking the new ball as Nasum Ahmed is capable of bowling in the first six overs.

In addition to that, captain Litton Das might throw the ball to a spinner to bowl one over out of the final two, a role which has been taken up by Rishad Hossain.

Meaning that the fast bowlers, Mustafizur Rahman and Tanzim Hasan Sakib, will have to take control in the middle overs with Shoriful Islam bowling in the powerplay.

All things said, the Bangla Tigers have got all its bases covered in the bowling department and would hope for the bowlers to come good and execute each plan that the team management has crafted for individual batters in the second T20I.
