    They have just two minutes remaining and you'd imagine they'd have been hoping for a better total than what they are heading towards.

    Another good over for Ireland, this time with Josh Little with ball in hand, as they concede just five runs.

    This has been a really promising display from the hosts. Can they hold firm in these final three overs?

    India 129-3

    Isobel Joyce, former Ireland international, on TNT Sports:

    Rinku Singh started that over very well. He's had a chance to get his eye in and it feels like he is beginning to up his run rate. Gaikwad has anchored the Indian innings and that was a powerful six runs. Gaikwad has played really well and he has scored his half century.

    India 122-3

    That was a lovely sweeping shot by Ruturaj Gaikwad as a four moves him to 51 for the afternoon.

    And he only goes and follows it up with a six!

    Quality from Gaikwad.

  7. India 113-3 after 13 overspublished at 16:05 British Summer Time 20 August 2023

    Ireland bowler Craig Young can be happy with his work across the last six deliveries, as he concedes just five runs.

    India 99-2

    Isobel Joyce, former Ireland international, on TNT Sports:

    That was some over for India! Eighteen runs scored from it. Samson was showing what a world-class batsman he is. After 11 overs India are setting up a great platform.

    Sanju Samson is really starting to enjoy himself out there as he rattled off three fours in a row then followed it up with a fine six.

  13. India 81-2 after 10 overspublished at 15:45 British Summer Time 20 August 2023

    We're at the halfway mark in India's innings and we may just have had the shot of the day from Sanju Samson as he produces a classic, elegant drive for a four off Mark Adair. .

    India 55-2

    Niall O'Brein, former Ireland international, on TNT Sports:

    India have averaged the powerplay score. Samson is a very popular cricketer in India and the fans will really enjoy getting to watch how how his innings shapes up. The average score is 165 and India will want much more than that.

  18. India 55-2 after seven overspublished at 15:34 British Summer Time 20 August 2023

    Another four collected by Gaikwad during what was Ben White's first over for Ireland.

    Opener Ruturaj Gaikwad is still at the crease for India, along with Sanju Samson.

    Facing Josh Little, Samson hits the sole boundary as India add another 10 to their total in the sixth over.

    Ben White takes on bowling duties for the hosts.

  20. India 37-2 after five overspublished at 15:26 British Summer Time 20 August 2023

    One wicket conceded by India and three runs scored during that fifth over.

    We have a match on our hands here, it would seem.

    A far better start for Ireland than they made on Friday.
