Pitch and Conditions

Batting-favorable pitch, yet batters struggled in the first T20I against pace bowlers. Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, and Craig Young made batters struggle with their pace and movement. With the sun around, conditions might change a bit in favor of the batters. If the weather remains as expected, both teams will be looking to put runs on the board. If cloud cover comes around The Village grounds, then the fans need to be ready for another close, low-scoring game. In the first game, bowlers were dominating the game most of the time.

Ireland did make a comeback when India were chasing a low total of 140 runs. Craig Young, with his two back-to-back wickets in the 7th over, brought the hosts back into the game. He got Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tilak Varma out in his first over. With the help of Barry Mccarthy (51) and Curtis Campher (39), Ireland posted 139 runs on the board. They took charge of the innings when the hosts were under pressure on 59 for 6 and added 67 runs for the 7th wicket. Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah and bowler Prasidh Krishna, along with young leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi, did well for India.
