India and Ireland will continue their ongoing T20I series by taking on each other in the second and final game of the series. The two sides will meet at the Civil Service Cricket Club on June 28th, and while Ireland will be looking to clinch the series, the Indian team will be hoping to level the score.ย
It is worth noting that Ireland scripted history and defeated the Indian team in the first T20I of the series. While many backed the Men in Blue to register a dominant win, Ireland defied the odds and beat the visitors. Interestingly, India included the likes of Shreyas Iyer, Abhishek Sharma, Arshdeep Singh, and many other first-team players.ย
Despite the quality of the visitorsโ squad, Ireland managed to register a 34-run victory and take the lead in the series. Brimming with confidence, Ireland will be backing themselves to register yet another victory and potentially clinch the series.ย
On the other hand, after an embarrassing loss, team India will be looking for a comeback in the series, and the side would hope to improve significantly and level the series, as winning it is out of question now with just one game left.ย
