India showed strength in the match

The Nassau International Cricket Stadium in New York was heavily criticized after the South Africa vs Sri Lanka match. The cricketers were not taking a good look at hosting the World Cup on a drop-in pitch. The next match at this ground was to see how the wickets of India and Ireland behaved. Wednesday night's match was also not without criticism. Where Ireland came down to bat first and were all out for just 97 runs. India chased down that target with 46 balls in hand to secure an 8-wicket victory. India showed their strength in a tough match.

There was a lack of skill of the batsmen along with the wicket. But the behavior of the wicket was still erratic. The ball bounced up and down. The bowlers were very unintelligible with uneven bounce. The batsmen were repeatedly beaten. Playing with risk brings danger. Along with Ireland, India lacked skill and experience. India got the expected win easily. Rather showed strength in low scoring matches. The batting lineup of the Irish has been shuffled by organizing a bowling attack with four pacers.

When their runs are 50 on the scoreboard, eight batsmen are in the dressing room. The last two wickets added 46 runs to Ireland's scoreboard. Gareth Dinley, who scored 26 runs for the team, rounded off the innings with 2 fours and a six off 14 balls. And 14 runs came from Jos Dinol's bat in the 10th. India's bowling was very controlled. The champions of the first edition of the T20 World Cup took all the wickets in 16 overs. Left hand pacer Arshdeep took 2 wickets for 35 runs. Hardik Pandya bowled the best of the team. His victim was 3 wickets for 27 runs off 1 maiden in 4 overs. Besides, Siraj and Akshar took 1 wicket each. Bumrah showed stinginess. He took 2 wickets with only 6 runs in 3 overs. He also won the man of the match award.

On a wicket where Ireland's batsmen struggled, India were the exact opposite. However, after Virat Kohli returned for just 1 run, Rohit and Pant realized that it is difficult to play on this wicket according to the ideals of cricket. So Rohit and Pant stepped out of the shell. Scored runs per attack. Not that they weren't confused either. But showed full signs of experience and skill. After scoring 39 runs in the power play, India scored 76 runs in 10 overs.

Rohit retired Hart after scoring 52 runs with 4 fours and 3 sixes. Suryakumar could not last long at the crease. Wight's ball was caught by Doorkrel for only 2 runs. Pant completed the rest of the work. When India was 6 runs away from victory, Pant reverse scooped the ball from pacer McCarthy. The left-handed batsman ensured the team's first victory with a wonderful shot. Pant returned to international cricket with this match after being sidelined for a long time due to a car accident. He scored 36 runs off 26 balls in his return match. India will play their next match against Pakistan at this ground on June 9.
