With a commanding 2-0 lead already in hand, India, led by Jasprit Bumrah, solidified their control of the series with a 33-run triumph in the second T20I. In the second T20I, we got a glimpse of Rinku’s excellent batting form, Ruturaj Gaikwad’s second international half-century, and many more spectacular moments.
It was expected that India will be back at their best in the second game despite the little hiccup in the challenging run chase in the first T20I. With no available reserve batter, it is anticipated that the visitors would keep to their batting order. The team management would already want players like Tilak Varma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Ruturaj Gaikwad to play as much as they can considering that all three would be competing for a spot in the World Cup next year.
When it comes to bowling, Jasprit Bumrah and Prasidh Krishna would probably still want to play more games as they have recently returned to the national setup even if they have greater objectives to focus on given that they were selected for the Asia Cup squad. If Arshdeep Singh doesn’t make room for one of them, it may keep Mukesh Kumar and Avesh Khan on the bench again.
Down below is the IND vs IRE 3rd T20I Weather Forecast, Rain Chances, and Pitch Report:
IND vs IRE 3rd T20I Weather Forecast
The August 20 (Sunday) weather is expected to be overcast, more on the rainy side with light winds towards the South West on match time. There are moderate chances of rain in the afternoon. Temperatures may peek at 19° C during the day and dip to a low of 18° C towards the evening. Humidity is expected to hover around 75-80% and winds will be gusting at 8-10kmph speed.
The weather will be overcast right from the morning and rain is expected at the match time. The chances of rain are 60% during the day and 40% in the evening. It is the start of summer in Ireland and the island so the temperature will be on the lower side. There could be a bit of rain around and hopefully, it won’t have a significant impact but might influence the decision at the toss.
There are always chances of rain when it is Ireland and Island but we can hope for a healthy and decent IND vs IRE 3rd T20I.
IND vs IRE 3rd T20I Pitch Report
The Village in Dublin is popular as a batter’s paradise. The first T20I between India and Ireland had a tricky playing surface owing to the overcast weather, and it seemed difficult to bat in the first inning of the second T20I. As the weather is predicted to be gloomy during the game, spectators ought to pack for another low-scoring twenty-over match.
Similar to the last game, spinners, and medium pacers will be beneficial. The result of the toss will be important since the chasing team has a higher winning record at this location. 11 of the previous 18 T20I games played here were won by the team batting second.
