IRE vs IND Dream11 Prediction — 1st T20I Best Team, Captain & Vice-Captain Picks

IRE vs IND Match Details — India Tour of Ireland 2026 1st T20I

The two-match T20I series between Ireland and India will kick off today at the Civil Service Cricket Club, Stormont, Belfast. Ireland played their last T20I match of the World Cup against Oman, registering a massive 96-run victory. Ireland will face several challenges in this series, as they will take the field without several key players, including Josh Little, Mark Adair and Paul Stirling. However, Ireland will look to make a strong start by capitalising on home conditions.

Meanwhile, Shreyas Iyer will captain the Indian team in this series. India has won four consecutive T20I matches, and in their last T20I match, they defeated New Zealand by 96 runs in the T20 World Cup final. India will make every effort to maintain this magnificent form.
