India are the favourites to win this match.
Although the Irish team won’t be overawed by the occasion, the players and fans will be extremely enthusiastic before the match. This game will be Ireland’s best chance because the India team only played a few warm-up matches prior to this series. But we are betting on India to win this first game.
