Series Recap

Ireland pulled off a notable 2-0 upset over India in a two-match T20I series played entirely at Belfast's Civil Service Cricket Club. Ireland won the opener by 34 runs before sealing the sweep with a nail-biting 1-run victory in the second match.

Jai Moondra was the standout performer for the hosts, taking 5 wickets across the series and earning Player of the Series honours. For India, Tilak Varma was the most consistent batter, top-scoring with 74 runs including a fifty, but the visitors were unable to find a way past Ireland's disciplined bowling in either match.
