Here are the Fantasy Cricket Predictions and Betting Tips for ICC Men's T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier 2023 matches on July 21 at the Grange Cricket Club, Raeburn Place and Goldenacre, Edinburgh, Scotland.

July 21: Denmark v Ireland (Grange Cricket Club, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh)

Ireland Form Guide:

Ireland have won their first match of the tournament against Italy.

The top run scorer for Ireland in the competition is Curtis Campher with 61 runs to his name.

The top wicket taker for Ireland in the competition is Mark Adair with 3 scalps under his belt.

In the previous match Ireland played, they batted first and scored 158 for 8 in 20 overs. The start wasn't ideal and Ireland lost 3 wickets for 46 runs. This is when Harry Tector and Curtis Campher joined hands to take Ireland to a safe total. They scored 41 and 61 runs respectively to take Ireland to a competitive total of 158 in 20 overs of play.

During the chase, Italy lost both the openers early on in the innings. Gareth Berg in the middle order caused a lot of scare amidst constant falling of wickets. Berg scored 26 off just 17 balls but got out at a wrong time to Mark Adair. Italy were eventually restricted to 151 for 8, losing the match by 7 runs.

Denmark Form Guide:

Denmark are in a supreme form currently. They have won 4 out of the last 5 completed T20I fixtures.

Players to look out for:

1. Hamid Shah - He has been very consistent over the last few matches for Denmark. Shah is captaining the side and is one of the best players in their line-up.

2. Saud Munir- He is a wicket taking option for Denmark in the middle overs. Munir bowls with a lot of accuracy and has a knack of picking up wickets when his team is under pressure.

Let's have a look at the squads:

Denmark

Hamid Shah (c), Saif Ali Ahmad, Lucky Malik, Saud Munir, Surya Anand, Abdullah Mahmood, Abdul Hashmi, Oliver Hald, Saran Aslam, Taranjit Singh Bharaj, Ehsan Karimi, Jonas Henriksen, Musa Mahmood

Germany got off to a sedate start and lost their captain within the powerplay overs. There was rain break and when Germany came out to bat again, the target was revised and Germany looked nowhere close to it. They were eventually restricted to 65 for 7, losing the match by 72 runs (DLS method).
