Ireland and India square off in the final match of the three-match T20I series on Wednesday afternoon at the Malahide Cricket Club. The series is already over, with India leading 2-0 after a rain-delayed 2 run (DLS) victory on Friday and by 33 runs on Sunday. Ireland lost early top-order wickets yet again on Sunday and were never able to regain control of the game. To have a chance of winning, they will need to put on a certain level of performance throughout the game. So far in the series, India has proven to be stronger than Ireland with both bat and ball. They expect to win this game and finish the series 3-0.

Topmost Picks for IRE vs IND Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Ireland

• Paul Stirling- the captain made an 11-ball 11 in the opening game of the series. He will want to take more care against the spinners in this game after being bowling by Ravi Bishnoi.
• Craig Young- the 33-year-old right-arm fast-medium bowler got good pace and movement from this pitch in the first T20I. He has 59 wickets in T20Is so far in his career.

Top Picks – India

• Yashasvi Jaiswal- the young left-hander plays with brilliant freedom and an attacking state of mind. When not looking to hit boundaries, he is always looking to rotate the strike.
• Jasprit Bumrah- the right-arm quick bowler delivered a few boundary balls in his return in the opening match of the series but also conceded only 1 run from the 19th over after taking 2 wickets in the first.

IRE vs IND Probable Winners

India dominated the second game of the series and thoroughly deserved their 33-run victory on Sunday. Even though this India team lacks some of their biggest names and includes some players for the future, they are still a very impressive unit. We expect Ireland to be competitive at times during the game, but we believe India will win again on Wednesday. Considering the team combination, India is expected to win this match.
