Background

IND vs IRE 3rd T20 Score Live: The third and the final T20I of the three-match India vs Ireland series is all set to get underway in Dublin on Wednesday (August 23) evening. India have already bagged the series having won the first two matches of the series but would aim for nothing but a win in the final match of the series in Dublin. Jasprit Bumrah's return to international has been the major talking point from the series the Indian speedster has been teriffic in this IND vs IRE series.Even though the Indian batters did not get to do much in the rain-affected series opener, the likes of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sanju Samson and Rinku Singh did well with with the bat in the second T20I. Others would want to chip in with the bat should they get a chance in the final match on this tour. With the ball in hand, other than Bumrah, Ravi Bishnoi and Prasidh Krishna have been impressive with all these three bowlers having picked 4 wickets each.As far as Ireland are concerned,  Andrew Balbirnie, Curtis Campher and Barry McCarthy have made some contributions but they would definitely hope for more runs with the bat from captain and experienced batter Paul Stirling at the top of the order. With the ball in hand too, Craig Young has been the best bowler for the Irish side, picking up 3 wickets in 2 matches so far, Barry McCarthy has also picked up 2 wickets.The atmosphere looks set for a great game of cricketIND vs IRE 3rd T20 Probable Playing XIs:India: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Tilak Varma, Rinku Singh, Sanju Samson/Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar/Shahbaz Ahmed, Arshdeep Singh/Avesh Khan, Ravi Bishnoi, Jasprit Bumrah (captain), Prasidh KrishnaIreland: Paul Stirling (captain), Andy Balbirnie, Lorcan Tucker (wicketkeeper), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Fionn Hand/Craig Young, Josh Little, Ben White/Theo van Woerkom
