With the 2027 ODI World Cup fourteen months away, teams are scrambling to optimise, strategise and lock in their match winners.
Some teams are still working on qualifying for the marquee event.
Until a month ago, this included Ireland and Afghanistan.
However, with the recently concluded series where Afghanistan trounced Ireland 4-0, Afghanistan have ensured direct qualification to the World Cup while Ireland will have to fight out in the qualifiers in February to secure their place in the tournament.
Join us as we talk to Ajit Skanda, host of The Armchair Cricket Podcast and cricket aficionado to break down the Afghanistan vs Ireland series- star performers, what Afghanistan did right, Ireland’s struggle against spin and the road ahead for both teams.
