Wasim Jaffer’s playing XI for the match against Ireland

Let us tell you that Wasim Jaffer has given information about his playing eleven through social media for the match of the Indian cricket team against Ireland. Also, Jaffer has selected this team on the basis of India’s performance in the practice match against Bangladesh on June 1. Jaffer has given place in this team to wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant and fast bowler Arshdeep Singh, who performed brilliantly in that match.

India would like to start the T20 World Cup with a win

Let us tell you that this match is going to be the first match of the Men in Blue in the ongoing T20 World Cup. So, by winning this match against Ireland, Rohit’s Virat army would like to start the T20 World Cup with a win. It will be worth seeing whether the Indian management gives a chance to the spin duo of Kulcha (Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav) together or not?
