Ruturaj Gaikwad’s fifty followed by fiery batting in the end by Rinku Singh and Shivam Dube, provided India with a total of 185/5 in the second game of the three-match T20I series against Ireland in Dublin on Sunday.
Ruturaj scored 58 off 43 balls with the supporting knock of Sanju Samson of 40 runs. Rinku and Shivam collected quick runs for India, scoring 38 and 22 respectively.
Put to bat first, Indian openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ruturaj Gaikwad started off well as they utilized the second over, and collected 16 runs in Josh Little’s bowling.
India then lost two wickets in quick succession. Young cleared up Jaiswal at 18 off 11 balls when Curtis Campher caught him in a failed pull shot. In the next over, Curtis Campher got the breakthrough of Tilak Varma who scored just one run. He continued to disappoint with his bat in Ireland. (ANI)
