Ireland vs India Betting Tips

Ireland vs India Betting Prediction

We are expecting India to win the 1st T20

  • India come into this mini-series off the back of a 2-2 draw with South Africa at home.
  • This will be the first time Ireland is playing T20 cricket since the T20 World Cup qualifier back in February, so the players are not expected to be fully match-ready.
  • Although it is summer in Ireland at the minute, there are a lot of showers expected on matchday, which will impact proceedings.
  • This will be the first time these two teams have met in any format since a T20 on this ground four years ago. The two teams have played three ODIs and as many T20Is against each other, with India winning all.
  • Ireland has qualified for the T20 World Cup in Australia later in the year, so for them, matches like this will be an invaluable experience ahead of that competition.
  • Paul Stirling has been playing for the Birmingham Bears in the Vitality Blast in England and opened that season with a century. He looks a natural choice to ace the top batter market for Ireland vs India betting.
  • We saw against South Africa that once Ruturaj Gaikwad settled himself at the wicket, there wasn't a lot to stop him. And against a much weaker attack like Ireland's, the opening batter seems like a good bet for the top run-scorer market for Ireland vs India betting.
  • Batters from nations that don't play a lot of cricket can still manage to play pace, but it is spin that catches them off guard. Yuzvendra Chahal is India's leading spinner right now, and he could claim the top India bowler honours.
CBA VERDICT

We expect India to dominate the 1st T20 against Ireland. It should be an easy win for the Men in Blue. That said, Paul Stirling could be his team’s top batter, while Ruturaj Gaikwad and Yuzvendra Chahal should ace their respective top batsman and bowler markets for Ireland vs India betting.

Ireland vs India Team News

Ireland

  • Ireland will need to be at their very best to have any chance of winning this match.
  • The uncapped pair of Stephen Doheny and Conor Olphert has been called into the squad and will be eyeing debuts in this match.
  • Josh Little spent some of the last two months operating as a net bowler for the Chennai Super Kings. He could get a chance to feature in the opening game.
  • William Porterfield has retired from international cricket, so Ireland could choose to push Gareth Delany up to open alongside Paul Stirling.
Ireland Probable XI

Paul Stirling, Gareth Delany, Andrew Balbirnie (c), Harry Tector, George Dockrell, Lorcan Tucker, Curtis Campher, Mark Adair, Andy McBrine, Barry McCarthy, Josh Little

India

  • India will be without a host of players you would expect them to take to the T20 World Cup at the end of the year.
  • Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Ravi Jadeja and Prasidh Krishna are all in England preparing for the one-off Test, followed by three ODIs and as many T20s.
  • Arshdeep Singh and Umran Malik are still waiting for their debuts after neither got any game time in the series against South Africa.
  • Shreyas Iyer is in England so Suryakumar Yadav could come into the middle order.
  • Rahul Tripathi will be hoping to feature in this match too.

Ireland vs India Key Players

Ireland

  • Paul Stirling – He was going a little quiet in the last few innings of the Vitality Blast but then resurrected himself with a blistering 116. He strikes at 134.69 in T20Is and can be handy with the ball too.
  • Andy Balbirnie – Technically the best of the Irish batters who had a good session with Middlesex in county cricket before becoming the Ireland captain. He averages 24.22 in this format with five 50s.
  • Josh Little – The left-arm new ball bowler has been playing franchise cricket worldwide with spells in the Lanka Premier League and the Indian Premier League. The skills he will have learned there will be valuable for him in this series. He has 31 T20I wickets at an economy rate of 7.49.

India

  • Ishan Kishan – The keeper-batter was the highest run-scorer in the recent series against South Africa. He can play both – the crash-bang-wallop innings or the one where everyone bats around him. The Mumbai Indians star hit two 50s against South Africa at a strike rate of 150.36.
  • Dinesh Karthik – The experienced keeper-batsman has made it clear he wants to be India's go-to finisher at the T20 World Cup later this year. He now has another opportunity to stake claim for that position here. In the 4th T20 against SA, Karthik smashed 55 off just 27 deliveries, hitting at a strike rate of 200+. Senior Indian coach Rahul Dravid has lauded Karthik's efforts for “banging the doors hard” in what was a sensational comeback to the Indian side.
  • Harshal Patel – Karthik's teammate at Royal Challengers Bangalore is gradually yet steadily emerging as the country's go-to bowler at the death. Patel finished the five T20s against South Africa with seven wickets at an average of 12.57, going for only 7.23 an over despite often bowling at the death.
