Rohit Brigade’s first clash is with the one who had once ousted Pakistan

New Delhi. The Indian cricket team will start its campaign in the T20 World Cup 2024 on Wednesday (June 5). Team India’s first clash is with Ireland. India will have to be cautious of the Ireland team which had shown Pakistan the way out in the 2007 ODI World Cup. Both the teams will clash at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. This match will be played from 8:00 pm according to Indian time. India and Ireland teams clashed in the T20 World Cup in 2009. Then the Indian team won. Both the teams are ready to clash again after 15 years in the T20 World Cup. The Indian team led by Rohit Sharma has reached the World Cup with the intention of ending the title drought after 17 years.

India defeated Bangladesh in the warm-up match of the T20 World Cup. While Ireland had to face defeat against Sri Lanka. The Irish team led by Andrew Balbirnie defeated Pakistan in a T20 match at their home last month. In such a situation, the Indian team will have to be cautious of this ‘underdog’ (IND vs IRE) team in the T20 World Cup. India has been placed in Group A along with Pakistan, Ireland, USA and Canada. In this group, Canada was defeated by host USA in the first match. The T20 World Cup 2024 is being organized under the joint hosting of America and Windies.

India vs Ireland Head to Head
Teams of India and Ireland have clashed 7 times in T20 International matches. The Indian team has won all the matches during this period. Both the teams clashed last year (2023), where India defeated Ireland 2-0. Both the teams clashed in the T20 World Cup 15 years ago. In 2009, India defeated Ireland in the T20 World Cup.

Bumrah, Arshdeep and Pandya can do wonders
The good news for India and Ireland is that none of their players are injured at the moment. India has great bowlers in the form of Jaspreet Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya against whom the Irish batsmen will be seen struggling. Ireland’s bowling attack is also excellent, due to which the Indian batsmen will have to be cautious.
