Date & Time : 28th June 2022, 4:30 PM (Local)

Indian cricket team already won the first T20I of the tour and they will look confident going into the second one to claim the series. They will need to play their brand of cricket.
India batted well and they will need to do the same as to finish off Ireland. Bowling wise a bit more will be required to put cation to the Irish batters.
India have their Test series in England beginning in a few days time.
On the other hand, Ireland will be disappointed to be not being able to get over the line in the first game against a good Indian side. They will look to be better in the next game.
Ireland batted well in the first T20I and they put up a good total in the rain-reduced match. The bowling is what needs to be more on the upward curve.
Ireland will have their home series against New Zealand next.
For the wicket, it will be good one for batting.
