Ireland shaken by Rinku Singh and Shivam Dubey’s devastation, know the reverse in the last 2 overs

Many fans are surprised that Virat Kohli, who has won 60 percent of India’s matches under his captaincy, is not included in the list. For your information, let us tell you that King Kohli made his T20I cricket debut as a captain against England in 2017. Virat had to face defeat in the very first match. However, by winning the next two matches, they definitely won the series 2-1 to India.

Rinku Singh became emotional after becoming the player of the match in the first innings, said – I have been playing for 10 years…

Bumrah’s comeback after 11 months in the T20 series against Ireland has been brilliant so far. He has taken 4 wickets for just 39 runs in 8 overs in the first two T20s. During this he also bowled a madden over. He was awarded Player of the Match in the first T20I. In the very first over of his comeback match, he took two wickets to put the hosts on the backfoot.
