A freshly assembled Indian team captained by Jasprit Bumrah has departed for Ireland to engage in a three-game T20I series scheduled in Dublin from August 18 to 23.
This series holds considerable anticipation for the Indian side due to a mix of newcomers and players returning from extended injury breaks. BCCI utilized their social media platforms to share images of players preparing to depart for Ireland.
Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, and Washington Sundar, who have been absent from many games due to injuries, now have an opportunity to showcase their regained form as they make their comeback.
Rinku Singh, Jitesh Sharma, and Shivam Dube, among others, are being recognized for their steady achievements in the IPL. This could serve as a pathway for them to secure a spot in India’s strategies for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
