Inn Break
Two down, one more to go. India have an unassailable 2-0 lead in this three-match T20I series against Ireland and will now have their eyes on a whitewash. The hosts will be hoping to put on a more complete display as there have been signs that they can indeed notch up a win against the cricketing giants. The 3rd and final T20I of this series will be played on Wednesday, 23 August and will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). Our build-up, however, will begin a lot sooner, so, do join us then. Take care and goodbye!
India's skipper Jasprit Bumrah says that he is feeling good. Adds that the wicket was on the drier side and hence, they wanted to bat first. Mentions that they were constantly assessing the surface. Shares that it is very pleasing to play with this group and it is tough to pick the playing XI. Reckons that is a great headache to have and everyone is confident and eager to perform. Feels that everyone has to work their way up and have to keep the baggage of expectations aside. Adds that you are not doing justice to your game if you are playing with expectations.
Paul Stirling, the captain of Ireland says that he felt they had chances in the game but were unable to take it and there were a lot of positives for them. Adds that they let it slip with the ball in the last couple of overs and the Indian batters did bat really well. Mentions that they have a few obvious areas to work on and would look to end the series with a win.
Rinku Singh is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his crucial knock of 38 runs off 21 balls in just his 2nd T20I game. He says that he was very confident and eager to bat. Mentions that he was trying to use his Indian T20 League experience and looked to remain calm. Shares that he has done a lot of hard work and is now reaping the rewards. Ends by saying that he couldn't be happier to get the award in the first game he batted.
The Presentation ceremony...
Earlier in the game, Paul Stirling won the toss and opted to bowl first under a fairly sunny Malahide sky. The frontline pacers couldn't do much for Ireland and Joshua Little in particular was off his game. India started off quickly before losing a couple of wickets in succession but then came a big stand between Ruturaj Gaikwad and Sanju Samson worth 71 runs with the former notching up a half-century as well. The innings did slow down a bit as Barry McCarthy and Benjamin White got both the set batters out. Rinku Singh on his first-ever outing with the bat on the big stage put on a show alongside Shivam Dube and the pair of them smoked the ball to all parts of the ground to take India over the 180-run mark. Coming to the chase, Ireland were always one big stand away from really challenging the Indian total but unfortunately for the home side, that partnership never came.
Ireland were once again let down by their batting performance in the Powerplay. Skipper Paul Stirling and Lorcan Tucker both fell early without even getting off the mark and Harry Tector couldn't do much either. Former skipper Andy Balbirnie however played a gem of an inning and had a bit of support from the likes of Curtis Campher and George Dockrell. Balbirnie fell on a valiant 72 and they lost a few quick wickets which made it improbable for the lower order to take them over the line. There were a few lusty blows from Mark Adair but the hosts were well beaten in the end.
There it is, a young Indian side has rounded off a solid display and have clinched the three-match T20I series 2-0 with a game to spare. India had the runs on the board and were able to pick up wickets at crucial times which helped them stay in front and get the job done pretty easily in the end. Prasidh Krishna was on fire in the early overs and picked up a couple of wickets and then Ravi Bishnoi picked up one more in the final over of the Powerplay. This put India in command but there was a bit of a fightback from the opposition. The likes of Arshdeep Singh and Jasprit Bumrah were able to come on in the latter stages and pick up wickets in heaps with the skipper even bowling a wicket-maiden final over.

Ravi Bishnoi To Harry Tector OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Right on the money from Ravi Bishnoi and Harry Tector plays all over it. Another googly that is looped up on off and middle and this is very full. Tector picks the googly well and looks to flick it leg side but the ball sneaks under his willow and goes on to crash into the stumps. Ireland in a spot of bother now.

Ravi Bishnoi To Harry Tector
FOUR! A fortunate boundary but Harry Tector will take it. Nicely floated up, full and on middle, turning in. Tector looks to slog it with the turn but gets an inside edge past the stumps and the ball runs away into the fine leg fence.
Time for spin as Ravi Bishnoi is introduced into the attack.

Prasidh Krishna To Lorcan Tucker OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! This time the fielders do collide but the catch is held. Prasidh Krishna bowls it back of a length over the stumps and at a good pace at it. Lorcan Tucker looks to pull this one over mid on but mistimes it badly toward wide mid on. Tnhe fielders from mid on and mid-wicket move toward the ball but it is Ruturaj Gaikwad from mid-wicket who grabs the catch and runs into Shivam Dube. Luckily for them, they escape without any damage.

Prasidh Krishna To Paul Stirling OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Well taken in the end and the Irish skipper departs for a duck! Prasidh Krishna bangs this one in a bit over middle and gets it to rise up a bit more because of his height. Paul Stirling looks to get going with a boundary and takes on the pull. Stirling though is hurried and gets a top edge toward short fine leg. The keeper runs back toward it and Arshdeep Singh also comes in from the deep. They manage to communicate well and Singh is the one who takes it.

Jasprit Bumrah To Andy Balbirnie
A big appeal for LBW but it is turned down. Jasprit Bumrah has a long discussion with the keeper and just about reviews it before the time runs out. This is on a nagging length on off and angling into the batter. Andy Balbirnie gets caught on the crease as he looks to defend and gets pinged on the pads. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking comes up with umpire's call on the wickets. Balbirnie survives.

What a ripper of a delivery to start with! Jasprit Bumrah begins with a length ball at 138 clicks and bowls it in that corridor of uncertainty getting it to angle in and then straighten off the deck. Andy Balbirnie looks to play at it but the ball zips past the outside edge.
