Afghanistan and Ireland face off for the second time in the 2015 Triangular Series, in Dubai.
Afghanistan opened the series with an eight-wicket win over Scotland, but has struggled in their two matches since, including a three-wicket loss to the Irish with 40 balls remaining.
Team Ireland, meanwhile, is sitting pretty, having built a 2-0 record in the series. They'll look to build on that number during Saturday's action.
The MVP of the Irish squad thus far has been Niall O'Brien. His unbeaten 80 anchored the team during a magnificent 217-run chase that put the match out of reach during their most recent win over Scotland. If he can put up similar production on Saturday, Afghanistan is in for a long day.
