3 Indian players for whom Ireland series is very important

India would be seen playing a three-match T20I series against Ireland in a matter of few days and some new faces could be seen under Jasprit Bumrah's captaincy who will be back to the national side after a period of 11 months. India will be playing three T20Is at same venue (Dublin) on 18th, 20th and 23rd August. This three-match T20I series could be crucial for few players from the Indian squad and here in this article, we will see who are these three players.1. Ruturaj Gaikwad The opening spot for Indian team has huge competition with players like Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan, and Yashasvi Jaiswal being in contention as first choice options. Thus, it has become very tough for player of caliber like Ruturaj Gaikwad also to feature in the playing XI regularly. Hence in this T20I series, Gaikwad as vice-captain might get a good opportunity to prove himself and knock the doors of Indian selectors, seeing the marquee events in line ahead.#PAGE_BREAK#2. Prasidh KrishnaPrasidh Krishna has played handful of ODI matches in his career from 2021-2022. But after that for the next one year, he didn't get an opportunity to play for the Indian team in international cricket, unfortunately due to injuries and notably, others like Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan, Mukesh Kumar have come into the frame and have made life difficult for him. It will be interesting to see how he would perform after a long injury break and his performance might determine his chance to be part of Indian squad in future tournaments. #PAGE_BREAK# 3. Sanju Samson Sanju Samson hasn't utilized his chances to the fullest in the limited opportunities that he got in International cricket, as even in the recently concluded series against West Indies he managed to score only 92 runs from 5 innings at an average of 18.40. Sanju Samson is expected to be the first-choice wicketkeeper for the three match T20I series against Ireland as Jitesh Sharma is the only other option. But this series would be crucial for Samson to determine his chance in the future tournaments to be played for India and another failure would mean end of his career in International arena.
