The India cricket team toured Ireland in June 2022 to play two Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1] On 1 March 2022, Cricket Ireland announced the schedule.[2][3] On 15 June 2022, Ireland named their squad for the two-match series.[4] Later the same day, India also confirmed their squad for the matches, with Hardik Pandya named as their captain.[5]
The first T20I was delayed by more than two hours due to rain, before the match was reduced to twelve overs per side.[6] Each side fielded a debutant, with Conor Olphert making his international debut for Ireland, and Umran Malik playing his first match for India.[7] Batting first, Ireland made 108/4 from their twelve overs, with Harry Tector making an unbeaten 64 runs.[8] In reply, India chased down the target in 9.2 overs,[9] to win the match by seven wickets.[10]
In the second T20I, India scored 225/7, with Deepak Hooda scoring his first century in a T20I match.[11] In reply, Ireland fell just four runs short of the target,[12] as they made 221/5, with India winning the match and taking the series 2–0.[13] Deepak Hooda was named the player of the series for his century and his 47 not out in the first match.[14] After the match, Ireland's captain Andrew Balbirnie said that "it's not every day you get that close against a team like India", but was "bitterly disappointed" in losing the match by such a narrow margin.[15]
