Pre-match:

All the talk before the game has been about the 15-year-old batting sensation, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who could become India’s youngest-ever international debutant if he is named in the playing XI.

Fans expected Sooryavanshi to make his debut in the first match of the series, however, the management did not want to disturb the combination up top, that fetched India the T20 World Cup 2026 only a few months back.

After the loss in the first match, though, the Indian think tank could consider reshuffling the batting order and slot in Sooryavanshi in the playing XI for the series-decider. 

Meanwhile, Lorcan Tucker will continue to perform the captaincy duties for Ireland and the new skipper is off to a dream start, having led his country to a first-ever win over India across any format.
