Ireland vs India Today Match Prediction Preview:
Welcome to the IRE vs IND Today Prediction curated by Kheltalk cricket experts. In the 1st T20I between these two sides, we will be witnessing an exciting clash for the honours at The Village in Dublin, Ireland.
Ireland were blanked 0-2 in the T20I series last year at their home turf itself and they would be looking to perform better against a second-string Indian team.
Led by Jasprit Bumrah, India have named a very young and inexperienced side for this small tour of Ireland. Prasidh Krishna and Bumrah have recuperated from their injuries and will be seen in action one again.
We can expect the likes of Jitesh Sharma and Rinku Singh to get a chance in the playing XI.
