IRE vs IND 3rd T20I: Teams Preview
Ireland Preview:
After suffering the eighth loss this year, Ireland faces questions surrounding their standing in international cricket. The leading run-scorer of Ireland’s team, Paul Stirling has failed to perform against India. He could return with scores of 56 in 6 matches. Balbirnie on the other hand, shone brightly by scoring 72 runs in 51 balls. He remains the standout performer in IRE vs. IND matches & will continue to be their biggest bet in this fixture as well.
However, the failure of prolific player Lorcan Tucker is a concern for Ireland. They have a big positive in Curtis Campher and Mark Adair has been a consistent contributor, amassing 100 runs in the first two T20Is. They just need to settle on the crease & score runs if winning is on their mind.
In the bowling department, Craig Young, Barry McCarthy & Adair have managed to restrict India’s scoring rate. Young’s 3 wickets in 5 overs at an average of 10.33 & McCarthy’s 2 wickets at an economy of 8.33 are notable performances. They will continue to be Irish’s biggest bets in the last match of the series.
India Preview
Indian team has already clinched the series by winning both the T20I of the series. So with one T20I in hand, they will try to measure the bench strength of the final T20I. The leading run-scorer of the series Gaikwad will probably open the innings along with Yashasvi Jaiswal. The return of the left-handed batter Tilak Verma who scored 173 runs against Windies will add more strength to India’s team.
Rinku Singh who scored 38 off 21 balls in his debut match will be their biggest bet in the death overs. Samson’s good form behind the wicket will yield him an opportunity to perform in this fixture. The exclusion of Jitesh Sharma & inclusion of Shahbaz Ahmed in place of Shivam Dube or Washington Sundar is a possibility.
In the bowling department, Jaspirt Bumrah & Prasidh Krishna will be their biggest bets. They have returned with four wickets each at an economy rate of 5 and 7.62. Avesh Khan or Mukesh Kumar could replace Arshdeep Singh, who has struggled with just 2 wickets in two games. Ravi Bishnoi, with 4 wickets, will assume the spinner’s role.
