After losing the series against West Indies, India have managed to start on a good note in this series by winning a rain-interrupted first match. A relatively young and fresh Indian team under the leadership of Jasprit Bumrah will be looking to seal the deal by winning this match. On the other hand, Ireland will look to make a comeback, especially in their batting department. The Paul Stirling-led side will try hard to win this match and take the series to the decider.

IRE vs IND, 2nd T20I : Pitch Report

The pitch at The Village, Malahide has been pretty inconsistent. While there have been games that have seen more than 400 runs in 40 overs, we have also seen games where wickets have fallen pretty quickly and the batters have found it hard to score runs. As far as the second T20I between India and Ireland is concerned, the wicket will favour the seamers at the beginning. But as the wicket settles down and the game progresses, the batters will enjoy the surface.

IRE vs IND, 2nd T20I : Top Player Picks

Ruturaj Gaikwad (IND)

• Ruturaj Gaikwad looked in good touch in the last match. He will look to go big in this match ahead of his captaincy stint in the Asian Games.

Jasprit Bumrah (IND)

• Jasprit Bumrah has made a solid comeback to cricket with a couple of wickets in the first over of the previous match. He looked in good rhythm and will be a good choice for this match. 
• With the playing conditions favouring the faster bowlers at the beginning of each innings, Bumrah becomes a vital pick for the game.

Arshdeep Singh

• Arshdeep Singh returned only with one wicket in the previous game. But he will be bowling with the new ball and also in the death overs, this gives him the maximum opportunity to pick up wickets making Arshdeep a very good choice for the match.

Curtis Campher (IRE)

• Curtis Campher looked in good touch with the bat in the last match. He scored runs under pressure and will be trying to repeat the antics in this game too.
• Campher can also contribute with the ball and that makes him a valuable pick for the game.
