Team India, led by Rohit Sharma, is ready to kick off their ICC T20 World Cup campaign with their first match against Ireland on Wednesday, June 5. Ireland, captained by Paul Stirling, will also be playing their first match of the tournament. Though India is stronger on paper, Ireland is known for causing upsets, so India can't afford to take them lightly. The match will be held at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York and will start at 8 PM IST, with the toss taking place at 7:30 PM IST.
Where to Watch: The India vs. Ireland match will be broadcast live on Star Sports Network channels on TV and can be watched for free on the Disney+ Hotstar mobile app.
