Ireland will definitely lose this one, but they could still win the last one if they play their cards right. Let's see what happens!
Losing this match is only a matter of time for Ireland as Ireland now need 38 runs from three balls to win. If Ireland could have done well early in the match then they would have had a chance to win this match but they batted brilliantly towards the end of the game due to which they were able to reduce the run gap with India a lot. If India win today's match, Jasprit Bhomra is likely to be the man of the match, as the fast bowler bowled brilliantly against Ireland and his bowling economy rate is very low. In addition to bowling at a low economic rate, he has picked up valuable wickets, so it will not be surprising if he is given the Man of the Match award today as in the first match. Jasprit Bhomra was not awarded man of the match but Ruturaj Gaikwad will be awarded man of the match as he opened the batting with a brilliant innings of 58 off 43 balls.
Ireland lost the match by 33 runs. That of course makes India the winner of this series already. I was a little surprised honestly to actually see that Rinku Singh won the man of the match. His performance was good. But I thought Gaikwad was going to be the man of the match because of his half century that he scored. He was also there for a very long time and was also surviving on one end of the pitch.
But anyway, the bottom line is that India is the winner of this match and they have also won the match quite easily in the end. Let’s see if Ireland can salvage something from this series by winning that last match.
