IND vs IRE Match Preview
Team India’s last T20I outing came in January 2024 against Afghanistan. The two sides locked horns in a three-match T20I clash, which was won by Team India convincingly (3-0).
Since, then a lot of cricket action has happened, but not a T20I series featuring Team India. In only a bit of their preparation, the Indian players participated in the TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 in the last two months. Most of the players kept their forms intact throughout the competition, with major limelight on Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah.
However, a few players were under scrutiny for their poor show as well. The focus was on the performance of all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who holds a key to India’s run in the T20 World Cup 2024. Though his IPL 2024 campaign didn’t give him encouraging returns, his performance in the only warm-up fixture played has instilled some confidence.
On the other side, Ireland will aim to produce a setback against the formidable Indian side. They come fresh off a T20I tri-series win as a part of their preparation for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. Ireland also challenged Pakistan in a three-game T20I series, which ended with a scoreline of 2-1 in favour of Pakistan.

Nassau County International Stadium Pitch Report IND vs IRE
To say the least, the last game at the Nassau County International Stadium turned out to be a shocker. The surface behaved weirdly and the bowlers got immense help off it. The drop-in pitch misbehaved in the game between South Africa and Sri Lanka, which has raised several questions for the teams playing their matches at this venue. Whatever the conditions may be, India remains the favourite to win the contest.
