Ireland Face Afghanistan In Second ODI At Rain-Threatened Bready

Ireland and Afghanistan are cricket teams that play each other in a series of five games.

The very first game was cancelled because it rained too much, so nobody got to play.

Now they are trying again for the second game in a place called Bready.

These games are important because teams earn points that help them qualify for the Cricket World Cup, a big tournament.

Afghanistan currently has the last spot that lets a team go straight to the World Cup.

Ireland is lower in the rankings, so they will have to play extra qualifying games.

Afghanistan has a brand new captain named Rahmat Shah, who is leading the team for the first time.

Ireland's captain, Paul Stirling, is back from an injury to lead his team.

Afghanistan's best bowler, Rashid Khan, just took five wickets in a big game in England.

Everyone is hoping the rain stays away so the match can finally happen.
