The 3rd T20 match scheduled between India and Ireland has been canceled due to rain. Since India had already won the first two matches, they have successfully clinched the series with a 2-0 lead. The series brought several positives for India, among which the most significant was Jasprit Bumrah‘s successful comeback after regaining his fitness. Additionally, India provided an opportunity to emerging players like Rinku Singh in this series. Rinku Singh also performed well, impressively securing the Player of the Match title in the second game.

The return of renowned Krishna further strengthened India’s fast bowling attack. Now, the Indian team will directly shift their focus to the Asia Cup, scheduled for September 2nd, where they will take the field.

The third and final match of the T20 series between India and Ireland is scheduled to be played today. Team India has already secured an unbeatable 2-0 lead by winning the first two matches in the series. However, even in the final T20 match, Team India will be aiming for a victory to complete a clean sweep. It remains to be seen whether Captain Jasprit Bumrah will give a chance to players who haven’t had an opportunity to play in the first two T20 matches. If that happens, it might lead to witnessing third debuts for some players in this series.

India has included players in this tour who have been performing consistently well in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for the past several years. Rinku Singh, the hero of the 2023 IPL, also got a debut opportunity during this series. Rinku Singh made the most of this chance and succeeded in being named the Player of the Match in his second T20 appearance. In the third match as well, India will hope for another good innings from Rinku.

Jitesh Sharma hasn’t had a debut opportunity in this series so far. Jitesh Sharma has made a significant impact with his batting in the IPL. Captain Bumrah would likely want to give Jitesh Sharma a chance in the final T20 match. Additionally, there will be expectations of a substantial innings from Yashasvi Jaiswal in this match. This match could also be a last chance for Sanju Samson to prove himself.

Changes might also be seen in the bowling department. Shadab Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, and Avesh Khan haven’t had a chance to play yet. At least two of these players could find themselves in the playing XI for this match.
