Fresh off from securing the series win, India would now have their sights firmly set on bagging a whitewash when they take on Ireland in the 3rd and final match of the three-game affair. Jasprit Bumrah returned to action for the first time in around a year and it seemed that he never left, with impressive performances in both games. Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sanju Samson and also Rinku Singh had memorable outings and it is only fitting that close out the series with a win, which will give some players in the squad a lot of confidence going into the Asia Cup, which is India's next assignment.  Rinku Singh Opens Up On His Experience of Getting Adjudged Man of the Match in IND vs IRE 2nd T20I 2023, Video Goes Viral!.

Ireland on the contrary, have been good but in bits. Rain played spoilsport in the first match, in which they lost by just two runs courtesy of the D/L method and in the second match, they fell well short with some clinical death bowling by captain Bumrah. Former captain Andy Balbirnie came to form in the second game and it will be a positive sign for Ireland, heading into this match. Also, captain Paul Stirling will expect both himself and the top order to fire in unison if they hope to pull off a shock win over a dominant Indian outfit and prevent a series whitewash.

Having won both matches, India are unlikely to have any changes in their playing XI for this contest. Ireland on the contrary, are likely to have few changes in their team, with Gareth Delany among those to be included.  Arshdeep Singh Becomes Second-Fastest Indian Bowler To Complete 50 Wickets in T20 Internationals, Achieves Feat During IND vs IRE 2nd T20I 2023.
