Jasprit Bumrah will be the focal point of attention as he leads India against Ireland in a three-match T20 International series, beginning Friday. Bumrah's comeback after a 11-month hiatus due to lower-back stress fractures will be closely observed, as he gears up for the upcoming ODI World Cup.

While the team boasts emerging IPL talents like Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rinku Singh, and Jitesh Sharma, all eyes will be on Bumrah, a pivotal figure in India's World Cup plans. The 29-year-old underwent surgery last year after suffering injuries during a series against Australia.

Ireland, led by Andrew Balbirnie and featuring players like Harry Tector and Lorcan Tucker, are a formidable T20 side, though they are yet to secure a victory against India. Their left-arm seamer Josh Little will be keen to showcase his skills against India.
