England were one of the favorites heading into the tournament. Chopra highlighted that England were expected to beat Ireland easily, especially after they won the toss.

The reputed commentator explained: "The runs would have been chased if the match had not been truncated. I feel England would have won here also. England were only five or six runs behind.
