The first game of the series is set to take place at the Village in Dublin. India are under a new captain and the squad is pretty much filled with IPL youngsters. On the other hand Ireland also have a fairly new skipper since the ICC World Cup Qualifiers 2023. So we are in a thrilling contest given the weather supports cricket rather than creating havoc. It has been very dark and consistent rainfall so far in the whole United Kingdom. A few of the England Domestic One-Day Cup matches have been delayed due to rain. There might be some rain intervals in the Hundred competition as well. Just as Niall John O'Brien tweeted from the venue or should I say around it it looks very much threatening for the game. It was raining earlier in the morning and it looks gloomy for the afternoon. Jasprit Bumrah is coming off a long injury break. He went through a successful back surgery in New Zealand. Then the recovery and rehabilitation at NCA in Bengaluru before getting fully fit for this tour and eventually being named the captain of the Indian set-up for the series. So Bumrah will be the first bowler to lead India in T20Is. The Indian fans wouldn’t want any further hiccups and hopefully no more injury worries for Bumrah. Paul Stirling will have a great opportunity to lead Ireland against a very young Indian side. He has done well in the recent tournament and led his team to the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 as Ireland have been qualified from the European Qualifiers. The Meteorological Department of Ireland have issued Yellow Alert for today and it would take something to get the match going. We might see a few debutants from India with the likes of Rinku and Jitesh in the squad. They would be hoping to replicate what Tilak Varma and Yashasvi Jaiswal have done when they made their debuts in West Indies. Toss Update: India won the toss and elect to bowl first. Rinku Singh and Prasidh Krishna have been given their T20I caps. Both will be making their debuts today. While it's Rinku's international debut it is Prasidh's T20I debut. At present it's not raining. The teams have begun the warm-up. The outfield is quite damp. Captain Jasprit Bumrah presents the debut caps to both Rinku Singh and Prasidh Krishna. Prasidh Krishna is also returning to the side after a long injury lay-off. Paul Stirling (Ireland Captain): "Looking forward to go out there and see what we put on the board. We will look to continue the good performance not get ahead from our position and see it game by game. We have a good run recently from Scotland and for this game the preparation has been good so will see what we can show today. This is the beginning to that adventure so to speak [T20 World cup 2024]. We are looking forward to it and a good performance today. We are bringing Craig Young in the side today." Jasprit Bumrah (India Captain): "Feels good to be here. We have decided to bowl first. Very good chance for the guys and hopefully it should go well. The weather looks lovely. I am feeling great. Good to be back and hope to play some cricket. When you realise what you have been missing you always love to make a comeback. Last time it was a tough fight from the Irish side and I am expecting nothing short of that this time around. We have got two debutants. We have got Rinku Singh who is making his debut. Also Prasidh Krishna making his T20I debut. Hopefully they should. They have worked hard to come here and I have just said to enjoy the game." Audio Content Disclaimer For This Content This is self-created content and not copied content.
