Virat Kohli-led Indian cricket team are all set to begin their long UK tour when they lock horns with Ireland in the first T20I of the two-match series in Malahide's Village, Dublin.

As we all know that India's performance in T20Is is not up to that level as they are in ODIs.  India is at no 3 in ICC T20 rankings with 123 rating points. Pakistan tops the chart with 131 rating points while Australia is at second position with 126 points. 


This is India's first T20I assignment since the Nidahas Trophy in March, and the squad doesn't have any major surprises.

There is a tough competition at no 4 slot where KL Rahul, Manish Pandey and Suresh Raina will put every possible efforts to seal the slot by their performance.

Team India will play two day T20 international series against Ireland on June 27 and June 29 before they play a limited-overs series and Tests game against England.

India will play three T20Is games against England. They will then play three ODIs before the commencement of the high-profile five-match Test series.

Ireland Squad:

Paul Stirling, William Porterfield, Andy Balbirnie, Simi Singh, Gary Wilson (capt), Kevin O'Brien, Stuart Thompson, Stuart Poynter (wk), George Dockrell, Boyd Rankin, Joshua Little

Indian Squad:

Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli (capt), Suresh Raina/KL Rahul/Manish Pandey, MS Dhoni (wk), Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal/Umesh Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah.
