India vs Ireland T20 2022: Five India players to watch out for

But with the next edition of the T20 World Cup around the corner, the performances in this series won't go unnoticed and every player will be looking to give his very best to seal a possible berth for the marquee event. TimesofIndia.com here looks at five India players to watch out for in the series: Umran Malik (Bowler - Right arm fast)

Tearaway pacer from Jammu, Umran Malik, made headlines and impressed everyone with his furious fast bowling playing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2022. Clocking over 150kmph consistently, Umran took 22 wickets in the 14 matches he played for SRH last season. And he was quickly drafted into the Indian squad for the T20I series against South Africa. But Umran didn't get a game as India drew the five-match series 2-2 (the decider was washed out). Nevertheless, with some of the India pacers gearing up for the one-off Test against England and some nursing injuries, Umran will be eyeing a possible India debut in Ireland where the conditions and pitches would suit his raw pace. Rahul Tripathi (Top order batter - Right hand bat)

Rahul Tripathi earned his maiden call-up to the Team India squad on the basis of solid performances with the bat in more than one IPL season. He had a good outing in 2022 as well. Playing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad, Tripathi scored 413 runs in 14 matches with three half-centuries last season. He was the second-highest run-scorer for SRH. Tripathi has been one of the most consistent uncapped IPL players over six seasons with the 2022 edition for Sunrisers Hyderabad being his best. Tripathi has been consistently performing in the IPL and also for his domestic side Maharashtra and has the distinction of hitting six sixes in an over in local tournaments twice. Tripathi
