IND vs IRE Head-to-head in T20 history: The Indian cricket team will be aiming to start its T20I World Cup 2024 campaign on a winning note when the Men in Blue will face Ireland at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium on June 5. India along with Ireland, Canada, USA and Pakistan are in the same group and will play against each other in the league stage. The Men in Blue have a brilliant record against Ireland as they have won all seven T20Is so far and are also considered the favourites to win the upcoming match against Ireland.
Although the Rohit Sharma-led side have had disappointing campaigns in the previous edition of the World Cup, they still are one of the top contenders to lift the elusive title. They have remained consistent in the shortest format as they have won four matches and lost just one in their last five matches. On the other hand, Ireland’s road to the T20 World Cup was quite challenging as they had to go through the European qualifications after failing to qualify directly. Their hard work paid off as they finished in second position in the points table of European qualification.
