  8. Weather set fair for second Malahide encounterpublished at 16:01 British Summer Time 28 June 2022

    Ireland v India (16:30 BST)

    The rain has cleared and we're looking good for a complete T20 game after only getting 12 overs per side in Sunday's opener.

    India comfortable prevailed in front of their big support in the Malahide stands and they are strongly fancied for another win in today's second and final encounter.

    Ireland will hope to make a better start with the bat this time around and big-hitting opener Paul Stirling could be key to clinching a first ever win over the world's number one side.

    So often Ireland's talisman, he managed just four runs on Sunday but this might just be the ocassion and stage for one of Stirling's sensational knocks.

    We witnessed 12 maximums on Sunday and more thrills and excitement is expected when play starts at 16:40 BST.

    And we'll bring it all to you - thanks for joining us!
