India vs Ireland T20Is full schedule, match timings, squads, live telecast and streaming details

After drawing the five-match series against South Africa at home, the Indian cricket team will next lock horns with Ireland in a two-match T20I series that starts on June 26.

Rishabh Pant, who captained India during the South Africa series, is not part of the Indian squad for the Ireland tour. Hardik Pandya will lead Team India during the two T20Is while Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been named his deputy. Pandya will be India's 6th captain in eight months.

With Pant and Shreyas Iyer in England for the rescheduled fifth test, Rahul Tripathi and Sanju Samson have been included in the squad while the bowling department remains the same as the South Africa series. Meanwhile, Suryakumar Yadav is making a comeback to the squad after an injury break.

During the South Africa series, Team India stuck with the same Playing XI in all the five-matches and pace sensation Umran Malik and death-over specialist Arshdeep Singh did not get a chance to play. With the Indian batting line-up set to undergo changes during the Ireland T20Is, it will be interesting to see whether Umran or Arshdeep too get a chance to make their national team debut.

Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Avesh Khan, Yuzvendra Chahal.
