No Place For Vaibhav Sooryavanshi In Aakash Chopra Playing XI For 1st Ireland T20I

Shreyas Iyer will make his captaincy debut in the first T20I against Ireland, replacing Suryakumar Yadav. He has not played a T20I since December 2023. Attention is on 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who could become the youngest Indian debutant. However, batting coach Sitanshu Kotak hinted Sooryavanshi might wait for his opportunity, and Aakash Chopra excluded him from his likely playing XI. The match begins at 6:00 PM IST following the 5:30 PM IST toss.
