IRE vs IND 3rd T20I, The Village, Malahide, Dublin Stadium Pitch Report Today Match
The Village, Malahide, Dublin Stadium is a batters paradise. If the weather remains clear, then you can expect the teams to go all out with the bat at this venue. India recently scored in excess of 180 runs despite losing a few quick wickets in the middle overs at this stadium. There is a bit of assistance for both pacers and spinners on the pitch but nothing too significant. Leg-spinners will definitely come into play, but the orthodox off-spinners won’t enjoy bowling on this pitch. The team which wins the toss should look to bat first and put a huge total on the scoreboard.
