Batting in the first innings of India vs Ireland, Ireland scored 139 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. However, India came out to bat in the second innings and batted brilliantly to reach their winning target. But the match was called off due to rain starting just as India scored 47 runs even though it was still raining. So if today's match is not rained then DLS method will do for India. It may be difficult for India to win if they do DLS Method but if they can perform then they can win the match.
The match was delayed due to rain. And India won by DLS method. India won the first match of the series. But I am not happy with India's performance. Ireland was not a big team. And very quickly India managed to take 5 wickets of Ireland. Perhaps Ireland lost 5 wickets for 31 runs. Still, Ireland managed to set a target of 140 runs. I would say Ireland played very well. Even after losing 5 batsmen for just 31 runs, the players did not lose confidence. Although the Indian bowlers bowled brilliantly at the beginning of the innings, they could not maintain this consistency.
I am not satisfied with India's batting. Even if the opponents were Afghanistan or Bangladesh, I would have said that India batted quite well. But against Ireland's inexperienced bowlers they lost 2 wickets to collect only 47 runs. Of course, our expectations are always high from a big team like India.
