India will look to bounce back from a shocking defeat when they face Ireland in the second and final T20I of the series on Sunday, June 28, at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Belfast. The visitors were stunned in the opening game after Ireland successfully defended 182 runs, bowling India out for 148 to register their maiden international victory over the Men in Blue in Belfast.
The defeat marked a disappointing beginning for Shreyas Iyer’s stint as India’s T20I captain. Returning to the shortest format after more than two years, Iyer will now be hoping to level the series before India travel to England for a five-match T20I series.
