IND vs IRE: भारत-आयरलैंड T20 सीरीज की बदल गई टाइमिंग, अब इतने बजे शुरू होंगे मुकाबले – india vs ireland t20 match timings changed vaibhav sooryavanshi debut tspoa
Two T20 matches between India and Ireland are to be held on 26 and 28 June. The Indian team led by Shreyas Iyer has reached Belfast for this T20 series. 15 year old batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi is also a part of the team, on whom crores of fans are eyeing. Now a big update has come out regarding this T20 series.
Both T20 matches will now start one hour before the scheduled time. Cricket Ireland officially confirmed this on Thursday and said that both the matches will now start at 6 pm Indian time, whereas earlier their time was fixed at 7 pm.
There is a special reason behind this change. Actually, the Group A match between India and Australia in the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 on June 28 (Sunday) is to start at 7 pm Indian time. This match is very important for the Indian women’s team because it desperately needs a win to remain in the tournament.
In such a situation, Cricket Ireland did not want both the matches to be telecast at the same time and the viewers would have to choose one match. According to sources associated with Cricket Ireland, this decision has been taken keeping in mind the convenience of broadcasters and cricket fans. The organizers believe that with this, cricket fans will be able to enjoy the matches of both men’s and women’s teams.

However, this news of change in time has also made headlines for another reason. This series is already in the news because of the possible international debut of young batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Vaibhav, who caught the attention of the entire cricket world with his explosive performance in IPL (Indian Premier League) 2026, has become a part of an international series with the senior Indian team for the first time.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi has recently created history in the final of the Tri-A series played in Sri Lanka. He scored a half-century in just 11 balls against Sri Lanka-A, which was the fastest half-century by a batsman in List-A cricket. Earlier, while playing for Rajasthan Royals (RR) in IPL 2026, he had scored 776 runs. His strike rate in the entire tournament was 237.31 and he made many records in his name.
Even after reaching Ireland, Vaibhav Suryavanshi continues to be in the news. Due to safety rules related to Britain’s under-16 players, a separate changing room has been arranged for them. This arrangement will be applicable to both Ireland and England tours.
This series is also considered very important for India in terms of preparations before the England tour. The team has experienced players like Shreyas Iyer, Tilak Verma, Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan, Akshar Patel, Arshdeep Singh and Shivam Dubey. The Irish team will try to give a tough challenge to the Indian team on its home ground.
Indian team for T20 series: Shreyas Iyer (captain), Tilak Verma (vice-captain), Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Ravi Bishnoi, Abhishek Sharma, Suryansh Shedge, Prasidh Krishna, Sanju Samson, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Ishan Kishan, Washington Sundar, Arshdeep Singh, Shivam Dubey and Prince Yadav.
