The second T20I between India (IND) and Ireland (IRE) is set to take place at Castle Avenue in Dublin on Tuesday, June 28.

The Indian bowlers also displayed glimpses of their ability, which will hold them in good stead ahead of this encounter.

Today's IRE vs IND Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Lorcan Tucker: Lorcan Tucker is a talented batter who is capable of scoring big runs in the middle order. Although he has been used in a lower middle-order role in his international career, Tucker's ability to play both pace and spin well makes him a fine option. With Dinesh Karthik batting lower down the order, Tucker stands out as the ideal option.

Batter

Ruturaj Gaikwad: Ruturaj Gaikwad didn't get a chance to bat in the previous owing to a shortened game. However, he is one of the more technically sound batters in the Indian set-up, capable of scoring big runs at the top of the order. He is a good player of spin and can hold his own against pace as well, making him a fine option for your IRE vs IND Dream11 fantasy team.

All-rounder

Hardik Pandya: Hardik Pandya had a good start to his captaincy stint in the previous game. He scored some quick runs in the middle order although his bowling hasn't been great in the last few weeks. However, the conditions suit Pandya's skill-set, and given his potential, Pandya is a must-have in your IRE vs IND Dream11 fantasy team.

Bowler

Josh Little: Joshua Little was a touch expensive in the previous game although he did pick a wicket late in the game. He is one of the better bowlers in the Irish set-up, capable of swinging the new ball and generating extra bounce owing to his height. Known for his wicket-taking ability, Little is one to watch out for in this game.
