Ireland is poor side...  Against Netherlands or Scots we would have seen close games. 

Dutch especially have improved vastly.  Their reserve sides coasted past WI & Zim in qualifiers. 

If I recall correctly, we nearly lost to Ireland in the 2nd t20 while defending 230 on our last tour.   We won by only 4 runs.  (Hooda was the MOTM)

Fingers crossed for Bumrah!

 

We despertaly need him for Asia Cup, World Cup and then 2 test in SA.

 

After that...don't care for him because he will be burned by MI anyways and he will be useless after one more major injury.

Don't give me hope

Under Bumrah's captaincy we could not defend 375 against Eng.   This time we would be unable to defend 220+ totals vs Ireland in the t20s.   Mark my words.  

He us an idiot captain. Wow. Total chaos. Great player but trash captain. 

 

He has no brain cells. 

 

Also lol Oz about to chase down 370 odd too. Flat pitch man. Can't do much.

Last weeks European   2024 T20 WC qualifying results ...it's getting embarrassing for ICC the number of times Scotland  now beat FULL MEMBER nations and then sit and watch them get series like this and they get nothing .

There was no need to make him captain, the guy is returning after 1 year, why overburden him with responsibility of captaincy. Are they looking at him as prospective Captain for wt20 2024, Project Pandu is over?

Oz not gonna chase 370.   They are 7 down already.   Agree with your take on Gumrah.

BOOM is good news but why did they make him the captain when he is just trying to settle down as a Pacer- we need bumrah the fast bowler not bumrah the captain.

 

not sure why captaincy burden on him when he is supposed to just bowl fast.

shahbaz ahmed looks an average Spin bowler- they should have tried Kuldeep again as he is a class Spinner or may be chahar.

 

ravi bishnoi is a top spinner- great pick. 

Prasidh +Arshdeep + Bumrah is a very SOLID Pace attack and avesh as 4th Pacer if need be.

 

136 to 145k with bounce -prasidh 

arsh- skilled -135 to 144k- left arm

133 to 148k - BOOM

 

TOP class bowling attack.

bishnoi and washington sundar as other 2 bowlers. SOLID bowling attack.

 

Batting lacks experience but all are highly talented batsmen.

 

we will win all the matches.

Why are they introducing new players? Should have the 20 ready by now

This is T20, not ODIs. ODIs need a settled team currently. T20, they can test new players for 2024.

Indeed India should instead tour these top Associate sides instead of has been sides like Ireland. 

Nostalgia of Ireland doing well in 2011 WC still grips the minds of BCCI I think. 

Dutch especially could be a seriously tough side if they get same resources like the Irish board.

They don't seem to win a lot...  They struggle to beat sides like Ned & Scotland these days & get thrashed by pretty much everyone.
