The wait is finally over, and Indian fans will be able to see ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah make his comeback with the team on the Ireland tour. India will lock horns with Ireland for a three-match T20I series. The first game of the series will take place on Friday at The Village in Dublin. This is a comeback series for Bumrah and Prasidh Krishna after recovering from their respective injuries.
Both bowlers were out of action for a long time. Jasprit Bumrah played his last international match against Australia in September 2022. However, he had his surgery in April and missed the 2022 T20 World Cup, IPL 2023, BGT 2023, and WTC Final. However, he is back again and looking good, and he will be captaining the side against Ireland in the absence of seniors.
