Jasprit Bumrah, who has returned after a long absence, has been in good form on the Ireland tour so far. He seemed in rhythm from the first game. In the two games played so far, Bumrah has bowled 8 overs in which he has taken 4 wickets with an average of 9.75. He is by far the highest wicket taker in the series. That being said, he has completed runs with an economy of just 4.88. He was also the “player of the game” in the first game.
Significantly, Bumrah is captaining India for the first time at T20 International and has managed to impress as captain for the first time. Under Bumrah’s captaincy, India took an unassailable 2-0 lead by beating Ireland in both their opening games. In the first game, India won by two runs using the Duckworth-Lewis method. After that, India won in the second T20 by 33 runs.
