Analysis
Ireland fared better with the bat in the second T20I in comparison to their first outing of the series, but still, the 72-run contribution off 51 balls from Andy Balbirinie wasn’t enough. The Irish batting lineup was chasing down a daunting target of 186 against a very formidable Indian bowling attack. Talking about the efforts with the ball from the home team, it was nothing much to write home about, except for Barry McCarthy, who picked up a couple of key wickets at the top of the order.
Meanwhile, for the batting lineup of Team India, the runs flowed on a very good pitch at the Malahide Cricket Club Ground in Dublin during the second T20I. Ruturaj Gaikwad held the innings together, while Sanju Samson, Rinku Singh, and Shivam Dube scored at a quicker rate. The bowlers of the Men in Blue were exemplary with the ball in hand, with Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, and Ravi Bishnoi featuring amongst the wickets.
