Ireland vs India 2nd T20I: Pitch Report, Weather Report, Possible Line-ups
Rain might play a big factor as India looks to seal the series against Ireland in the final T20I before the England series.
New Delhi: India takes on Ireland in the second T20I at The Village, in Dublin. Ireland will try to salvage some pride as they will look to avoid a series defeat and a 2-0 whitewash at the hands of India, who, on the opposite, will be concerned to avoid any sort of momentum hindrance or hiccups before the commencement of the England series.
How will the pitch play in?
In the first T20I, it seemed evidently clear that the pitch has a good swing. So it will be a treat for pacers to pitch in good line and take the scalps.
How will the weather play in?
Strong winds are expected in Dublin, and also, there is a very heavy chance of rain coming in, resulting in a reduced overs match.
What will be the possible line-up for today?
Ireland: Paul Stirling, Andrew Balbirnie (c), Gareth Delany, Harry Tector, Lorcan Tucker, George Dockrell, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Joshua Little, Craig Young, Conor Olphert
As the pitch will be seamer-friendly and with George Dockrell in their ranks, Ireland may drop their spinner Andy McBrine for seamer Barry McCarthy as a pacer-friendly pitch will support Barry, and also, McBrine conceded 21 off his only over in the previous match.
India: Deepak Hooda, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya (c), Dinesh Kartik, Harshal Patel, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Yuzvendra Chahal, Umran Malik
As Deepak Hooda played maturely and with temperament in the first T20I, it will be tested out whether Hooda carries the same form or not. The only change that can come in will be that of Harshal Patel for Ruturaj as Harshal will provide the death overs specialist requirement as Bumrah isn’t available. Also, Ruturaj hasn’t been in the nicest of forms lately and with the emergence of Hooda, Ruturaj will have to catch up.
