Dublin: May 26, 2013
Pakistan won the toss in the second One-Day International against Ireland in Dublin on Sunday and elected to field.
The tourists made three changes to their team which tied the first ODI on Thursday.
The surprising news was that Saeed Ajmal and Mohammad Irfan with Ehsan Ali were excluded from the playing XI and were replaced by Abdur Rehman, Wahab Riaz and Asad Ali. So all the batsmen survive but there are three changes to the bowling line-up which conceded 275 in 47 overs in the first game.
Ireland made just one change with James Shannon making his ODI debut in place of his Instonians club mate Andrew White.
Teams:
Ireland: William Porterfield (c), Paul Stirling, Ed Joyce, Niall O’Brien, Gary Wilson (wk), Kevin O’Brien, Alex Cusack, James Shannon, Trent Johnston, Goer Dockrell, Tim Murtagh
Pakistan: Imran Farhat, Nasir Jamshed, Mohammad Hafeez, Shoaib Malik, Asad Shafiq, Misbah-ul-Haq (c), Kamran Akmal (wk), Wahab Riaz, Junaid Khan, Abdur Rehman, Asad Ali.
