India returning to Ireland for three August T20 games

India are returning to Malahide to play Ireland in a three-match Twenty20 cricket collection in August.

India, the world’s top-ranked males’s T20 line-up, will face Ireland on August 18, 20 and 23.

“We’re delighted to welcome India back to Ireland for the second time in 12 months,” Warren Deutrom, chief govt of Cricket Ireland, mentioned Tuesday.

“We saw two sold-out matches in 2022, so to have a three-match series this year should give even more fans the opportunity to enjoy what is always a memorable occasion.”

This will likely be India’s fourth tour of Ireland and third time for a Twenty20 collection. Their first ever tour was in 2007 for a one-off ODI match. In 2018 and 2022, they toured Ireland for a two-match T20I collection every.

India beat Ireland 2-0 in final yr’s collection.

India, who will embark on a tour to the West Indies subsequent month that may contain three Tests and 5 T20 internationals, are set to host the 50-over World Cup beginning October 5.

“Our sincere thanks to the BCCI, first, for their continued inclusion of Ireland in the Indian team’s busy itinerary and also for working with us to ensure as fan-friendly a schedule a possible – having matches on a Friday and Sunday will hopefully maximise availability of fans,” Deutrom mentioned.
