Belfast Wolves head into the contest on the back of a lucky victory in a rain-affected match.

The Wolves comfortably chased down the target, scoring 57 runs with seven balls to spare. They are now second in the points table after collecting five points.

Batting first, they posted a strong total of 184 runs, with Mark Chapman and Glenn Maxwell scoring half-centuries. In reply, Dublin were restricted to 132 runs. Belfast lost four wickets for 68 runs, but an 84-run partnership between Chapman and Maxwell helped them post a competitive total. Mark Adair, Fred Klaassen and Matthew Humphreys picked up two wickets each.
Mark Chapman could be a player to watch out for. The Kiwi star showcased his ability to accelerate in the opening game with a cracking half-century and has accumulated 102 runs in three innings. Paul Stirling is another impactful batter, having scored 3,895 T20I runs at a strike rate of 134.

BLW vs ECR Pitch Report
The surface at Sportspark Duivesteijn is good for batting. The surface is good to bat on but overcast conditions can help pacers to take early assistance. Two pacers have bagged five-wicket hauls in the competition. In the last five matches at this ground, the average first batting score in T20 is 159. Spinners come handy in the middle overs. It is a good T20 batting surface where batsmen need to play sensibly.
Score prediction:
If Edinburgh bat first - 160-170 runs
If Belfast bat first - 180-190 runs
Toss: To Bowl
In the last five completed T20s on this surface, chasing sides won four times. Overcast conditions can allow captains to bowl first without any doubt. It may backfire if pacers get extra help from the pitch. Both teams have had earlier success while bowling first and they will look to bowl first in this fixture as well.
Toss Prediction: Belfast to win the coin toss.
BLW vs ECR
