Cricket Ireland has officially announced that Ireland will host a thrilling three-match T20I series against India later this year.
The details of the series were officially confirmed on Tuesday, June 27. Following their captivating tour of Ireland in 2022, the Indian cricket team will once again grace the Irish shores.
The picturesque grounds of Malahide, located on the outskirts of Dublin, have been chosen as the venue for all three matches, scheduled to take place from August 18 to 23.
This exciting series will immediately follow India's comprehensive all-format tour of the West Indies, scheduled for July and August.
"We are delighted to welcome India men back to Ireland for the second time in 12 months," Warren Deutrom, Chief Executive of Cricket Ireland said in a statement as quoted by ICC.

"We saw two sold-out matches in 2022, so to have a three-match series this year should give even more fans the opportunity to enjoy what is always a memorable occasion."
"Our sincere thanks to the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India), first, for their continued inclusion of Ireland in the Indian team's busy itinerary and also for working with us to ensure as fan-friendly a schedule a possible - having matches on a Friday and Sunday will hopefully maximise the availability of fans," he concluded.
