Ireland got off to a perfect start! They got rid off Ishan Kishan in the third over and put themselves ahead early in the game. But post that they had no answers to the power-hitting displayed by Deepak Hooda and Sanju Samson. All the bowlers were taken to the cleaners! Every ball was being dispatched into the crowd. However, once they broke that mammoth partnership, they grabbed wickets at regular intervals from there. They did well to towards the end but still have a mountain to climb. Amidst all the carnage, Mark Adair grabbed three wickets, while Josh Little and Craig Young picked up two wickets. The batters face a challenge ahead. They need 228 runs to level this series. Can they do so? We will find out. Stay tuned for the second essay.

A good decision to bat first by Hardik Pandya! This full Indian innings though belonged only to two people, Sanju Samson and Deepak Hooda. Both of them have grabbed their opportunities beautifully.
