Wicketkeepers: James Vince (C)

Batters: George Munsey, Jason Roy

All-rounders: David Willey, Daryl Mitchell, Liam Livingstone, Ravichandran Ashwin

Bowlers: Craig Young (VC), Joshua Little, Tymal Mills, Benjamin Calitz

Vince is captain because of his form, not the team’s results. He has scored 95 not out and 73 in his last two matches. Young is vice captain after his 5 for 21 against Belfast, the best bowling performance by anyone in this match up so far.

Willey and Mitchell are both included after their part in Dublin’s first win. Munsey and Livingstone are the safest picks from a struggling Glasgow side, since both have shown they can score even when the team loses.

Match Prediction

Dublin have the momentum here. Their first win came with real quality, a five wicket haul and two batters finishing the job with ease. James Vince is also batting better than his results show.

Glasgow have lost five in a row and have not found a way to turn good individual scores into wins. Munsey and Livingstone can score runs, but the team around them has not delivered.

Dublin Guardians get the edge here, backed by their recent win and home advantage at Malahide.
