Ruturaj Gaikwad led India’s batting charge as they amassed a formidable total of 185/5 in the second T20I against Ireland. Batting first after being invited by Ireland to do so, Gaikwad’s contribution was vital as he scored 58 runs off 43 balls before being dismissed by Barry McCarthy. Gaikwad’s partnership with Sanju Samson, who also played a crucial role, added 71 runs to India’s total after they had lost Yashasvi Jaiswal (18 off 11 balls) and Tilak Varma (1 off 2 balls) early in the powerplay overs. The duo’s stand helped stabilize India’s innings. However, Benjamin White managed to dismiss Sanju Samson for 40 runs off 26 balls. Later in the innings, Rinku Singh and Shivam Dube made impactful cameos, contributing significantly to the final score. During the last two overs, Rinku Singh scored 38 runs off 21 balls, while Shivam Dube remained unbeaten with 22 runs off 16 balls.
