After a nail-biter against India, the English side is all set to take on their neighbours Ireland in the Match 15 of the ICC CWC 2011 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. England have put their series defeat against Australia behind and with two good performances with the bat they have shown the calibre to succeed in this tournament. However, the bowling has looked completely flavourless. They would wish that their bowlers put up an inspirational performance in this match to gain a much needed confidence. The Irish side would be feeling disappointed after conceding their first match as they restricted Bangladesh to a mediocre total. Needless to say, they have to come up with more conviction against the mighty British side, if they want to present a tough fight in front of the Poms. England will be the firm favourites to win this tie but they cannot afford to take Ireland lightly.
England: Andrew Strauss, Ian Bell, Jonathan Trott, Kevin Pietersen, Ajmal Shahzad, Graeme Swann, James Anderson, James Tredwell, Michael Yardy, Paul Collingwood, Stuart Broad, Luke Wright, Ravi Bopara, Tim Bresnan, Matt Prior
Ireland: Andrew White, Ed Joyce, Paul Stirling, William Porterfield, Albert van der Merwe, Boyd Rankin, George Dockrell, John Mooney, Nigel Jones, Alex Cusack, Andre Botha, Kevin O'Brien, Trent Johnston, Gary Wilson, Niall O'Brien
