The Netherlands Tri-Nation T20I Series may only be two matches old but is already delivering excellent cricket after the first weekend of fixtures. Sunday's clash between the hosts the Netherlands and Ireland went all the way to the wire with Ireland successfully defending their total of 150/8 by restricting the Men in Orange to 149/8.

Scotland will be keen to get off the mark in this game but they are always the underdog when they come up against Ireland in this sport!

Both teams will be heading off to the Caribbean and USA for the T20 World Cup after this tournament and so they will be keen to generate momentum starting with this clash on Monday.

Ireland Preview

After his excellent all-round performance on Sunday, Mark Adair not only basked in the thanks and back-slaps of his team-mates but also took the Player of the Match Award. Batting at number eight he bludgeoned 49 runs from 24 balls before he took 2/34 with the ball - and in a game which is won by just 1 run, these types of contribution matter!

In this clash, Ireland will be looking to their experienced opening pair of Andy Balbirnie and skipper Paul Stirling to get some runs into their legs after both were dismissed for 11 against the Netherlands.

With the ball, Fionn Hand will be keen to carry on where he left off on Sunday after taking 3/18 from his four overs.

Ireland Predicted Playing XI:

Andy Balbirnie, Paul Stirling (c), Lorcan Tucker (wk), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Fionn Hand, Ben White

Scotland Preview

Scotland have plenty of areas for improvement ahead of this game after finding themselves second best in both innings against the Netherlands on Saturday in the tournament curtain-raiser.

The opening bowlers will be looking to be far more penetrative after no wicket was taken until halfway through the ninth over when the hosts had already put on 68 runs.

And with the bat, a miserable scorecard which saw only skipper Richie Berrington and keeper-batter Matthew Cross make double figures, means there are plenty of others who need to put their hands up and deliver in this game.

Scotland Predicted Playing XI:

Michael Jones, Ollie Hairs, Charlie Tear, Richie Berrington (c), Matthew Cross (wk), Michael Leask, Mark Watt, Chris Greaves, Chris Sole, Gavin Main, Bradley Currie

This wicket is one which offers something for the bowlers and doesn't give the batters all that much pace to work with. After spending a few balls in the middle, the top batters will get used to the speed but those who try and tee off immediately are unlikely to succeed.

Toss: To Bat

The first two games in this Tri-Nation T20I Series have been won by the team batting first so we predict that both sides will arrive at the ground wanting to bat first on Monday.

Although it was Scotland who won the last T20I head to head between the sides, it was Ireland who won the three previous clashes. So far in The Hague, Ireland have looked the superior side and that is why we are predicting them to come out on top in this match on Monday.

We are backing Scotland to win!
