For the first time in history, India lost the T20 series, these 5 big mistakes proved costly, ‘Dhurandhar’ was left sitting on the bench.

India vs Ireland India Loss Ireland: The Indian team had to lose the T20 International series against Ireland for the first time. This is one of India’s embarrassing defeats against Ireland. Ireland won the two-match T20 series 2-0 with a thrilling one-run win in the second T20 played in Belfast. Let us tell you due to which five reasons Team India had to face a shameful defeat.

Top order failed miserably

The performance of the top order of the Indian team was very disappointing in this series. Especially Sanju Samson flopped badly in the series. Samson scored 5 runs in the first T20, while he could not even open the account in the second match. Abhishek played a brilliant inning of 49 runs in the first T20, but he was out for a duck in the second innings. Ishan Kishan could score only 13 runs in total in the two matches.

Captain Iyer did not live up to expectations

Looking at his recent form, Shreyas Iyer was expected to perform well in the T20 series against Ireland. However, Iyer’s bat remained completely silent in the first T20 series as captain. Iyer could score only 13 runs in two matches. After the failure of the top order, Iyer’s failure cost the Indian team a lot.

The middle order looked hollow

The middle order of the Indian team looked hollow in this series. Team India clearly missed Hardik Pandya. Iyer, Akshar Patel, and Shivam Dubey could not do anything special with the bat. At the same time, Tilak scored a half-century in the second T20, but his strike rate was only 119.

Team combination looked wrong

India’s team combination looked wrong in both the T20 matches. The decision to field two spinners in the form of Washington Sundar and Axar Patel in the first T20 on Ireland’s pitch went against the team. Before Sundar, only one over was bowled in T20, in which he gave 19 runs. At the same time, the decision to play Prasidh Krishna in the first T20 was also under question. Krishna gave 57 runs in a spell of 4 overs without taking any wicket.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi remained sitting on the bench

Despite the failure of the batsmen in the first T20, the team management did not express confidence in 15-year-old batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi for the second T20 match. Vaibhav had returned from India A with a tremendous performance in the tri-series and he could single-handedly turn the tide of any match.
