Jasprit Bumrah has won the toss and elected to bowl first against Ireland in the first T20I.
“It feels good to be back. I am expecting some help for the bowlers but lets see what happens. Rinku Singh and Prasidh Krishna are two debutants I’ve told them to enjoy the game,” said Jasprit Bumrah.
“We are looking forward to putting a good score on the board. I hope we put in a good performance against India. This is the beginning of the adventure before the ICC T20 World Cup in 2024,” said Paul Stirling.
