The Men in Blue will leave Ireland victorious on every front after the latter collapsed spectacularly in the balmy Dublin air, nearly prevailing over the Indian top-order with Ruturaj Gaikwad’s crucial wicket from a position of strength to go down by 37 runs in the second T20I. Captain Jasprit Bumrah struck a perfect balance between adding miles to his legs and putting his team`s bench strength in check throughout the two T20Is as India completed a comfortable clean-sweep against Ireland in the three-match T20I series on Wednesday.
It is no secret that the Indian skipper for the series has looked comfortable in the eight overs across two matches. In a way, he set up the two games as he set up the Irish batsmen: starving, stifling, strangling, sadistically getting rid of all other possibilities until only one remained. As much as Prasidh Krishna with his menacing pace or Ravi Bishnoi with his perseverance or Arshdeep Singh with his rhythmic swing, it was Bumrah who mapped out India’s triumph from start to finish. And at the bejewelled heart of this performance was the electrifying comeback spell in the first T20I that broke the game in half.
