- 22:41 (IST)IND vs IRE Live: Rohit Sharma retired hurtAfter the end of the 10th over, Rohit Sharma got retired hurt. He was earlier hit on his arm by a delivery and that seemed to have played a role in him getting out of the ground. This is a serious injury scare for the India captain as he was looking in discomfort while walking off the ground.IND 76/1 (10)
- 22:23 (IST)IND vs IRE Live: FOUR!Rishabh Pant is trying his best to score at a brisk pace now. He smashed a four on the fifth ball of Barry McCarthy's second over.

- 22:01 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: OUT!Virat Kohli has been trapped by Mark Adair.

- 21:29 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: Run-out!!! Ireland are all out for 96A run-out on the final ball of Arshdeep Singh's over and Ireland are all out for 96 runs.

They need to start really well with the ball to challenge India.IRE 96 (16)
- 21:04 (IST)T20 World Cup Live: WICKET!A stunning catch from Axar Patel off his own bowling and Barry McCarthy is the latest one to depart.

- 20:59 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: OUT!A short ball banged onto the surface from Hardik Pandya and Mark Adair toe-ended it to Shivam Dube at deep point.

- 20:51 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: WICKET!Ireland are six down! That is a poor shot from George Dockrell and he pays the price for it. Dockrell created room for himself by moving on the leg side before pulling the Mohammed Siraj delivery in the air. Jasprit Bumrah at mid-on took the catch.IRE 46/6 (9.4)
- 20:48 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: OUT!Another wicket for Hardik Pandya. The ball was shaping away from Curtis Campher after pitching and took the outside edge of his willow and went into the hand of wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. Ireland batters are falling like a pack of cards.IRE 44/5 (9)

- 20:36 (IST)
- 20:33 (IST)IND vs IRE Live: End of powerplayJasprit Bumrah begins with a maiden over. Harry Tector literally had no clue as he missed four off the six balls bowled from Bumrah.

- 20:15 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: OUT!Another one bites the dust! Andrew Balbirnie has been cleaned up by Arshdeep Singh for his individual score of 5 off 10 balls. It was a back of length ball from Arshdeep that missed the outside edge of Balbirnie's bat and hit the off stump.IRE 9/2 (3)
- 20:12 (IST)India vs Ireland Live: OUT!Arshdeep Singh has drawn the first blood here. Ireland captain Paul Stirling departs after scoring 2 runs off 6 balls.
