May 14, 2024, will mark the third time Ireland square off against Pakistan in five days. The third T20I of the series will be held at Castle Avenue, Dublin, the same venue where the first two T20Is between the two sides were played.

The series hangs in the balance after the hosts secured a historic five-wicket win with just one delivery remaining in the first T20I. The visitors staged a strong comeback in the second match, with the chasing side claiming victory again, this time with a more emphatic margin while chasing 11 runs more than the hosts’ target in the first encounter, levelling the series with over three overs left.

Following the thrilling turn of events in the first two T20Is, anticipation for the third one is palpable, with expectations soaring for a riveting encounter. Ireland now stands on the cusp of etching their names into the annals of history by potentially clinching a series win, adding another remarkable chapter to their cricketing journey.
