IND vs IRE 2024, T20 World Cup 2024 Match Today: Playing XI prediction, head-to-head stats, key players, pitch report and weather update | Cricket News

India vs Ireland T20 World Cup 2024 Match Today: Rohit Sharma-led India will start their T20 World Cup campaign against Paul Stirling’s Ireland at the newly-constructed Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Wednesday.Conditions in New York – a sluggish outfield, vast square boundaries and drop-in strips of variable bounce – may have suddenly raised the T20 stocks of anchors and accumulators at the World Cup. With three of their four Group A games marked at the venue, India will have to remain flexible in terms of their combinations to ward off Ireland, Pakan and hosts United States in that order before gearing up for the slow tracks in the Caribbean for the Super 8s.
India vs Ireland predicted XIs
India predicted XI: Rohit Sharma (c), Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Sanju Samson/Axar Patel, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh
Indian player to watch out for: Hardik Pandya’s bowling form will indicate how India fares in this competition. At the Cantiague Park nets on Monday, Pandya spent considerable time bowling to Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit. If he can bowl at least three overs every day, the Indian team can also look to play Shivam Dube and include an extra spinner in the line-up.
Ireland Predicted XI: Andy Balbirnie, Paul Stirling (c), 3 Lorcan Tucker (wk), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Mark Adair, Barry McCarthy, Craig Young, Ben White
Ireland player to watch out for: Harry Tector’s highest T2OI score is against India when he smashed 64 off 33 balls against a second-string attack. Recently, he scored a belligerent 56 off 34 balls against Rashid Khan’s Afghanan. He will be Ireland’s key player to negotiate India’s spinners in the middle.
