Ireland will take on India in the third and final T20I of the three-match series on Wednesday.
Having lost the first two games against the young Indian team, the Irish side would look to bounce back and finish the series on a positive note. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah’s India will try their best to register a clean sweep in the 20-overs leg.
In the second T20I, India posted a mammoth total of 185-5 after batting first. During the run-chase, Paul Stirling & Co. struggled from the beginning as captain himself departed for a duck in the third over of the innings. Apart from Andrew Balbirnie, who smashed a 51-ball 72, no other Irish batter could withstand the Indian bowling attack, spearheaded by the skipper Bumrah.

The Village Ground Pitch Report
The pitch at The Village Ground is renowned for its equitable treatment of both batters and bowlers. Te first innings average of 152 suggests that there’s considerable opportunity for batters to establish their influence on the game. Nonetheless, it’s the bowlers who have succeeded in maintaining the game’s fascination with a second innings average score of 134. The pitch tends to get slow as the match progresses, introducing greater challenge to run-scoring and bringing spinners into play during the later phases.
