The Indian cricket team is set to embark on their tour to Dublin for a three-match series against Ireland. However, the coaching staff will be missing a familiar face as VVS Laxman, initially expected to lead in Rahul Dravid\u2019s absence, will not be accompanying the team. Instead, coaches Sitanshu Kotak and Sairaj Bahutule will provide support. Notably, fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will take on the role of team leader for this series.<\/p>\n
Scheduled for August 18, 20, and 23, this series gains significance due to Bumrah\u2019s return to the field after a hiatus since September 2022 due to back surgery. With his pivotal role in India\u2019s impending World Cup plans, his performance will be closely observed to gauge his progress and readiness.<\/p>\n
The team\u2019s assembly in Dublin will occur in two separate groups: one contingent, currently in the US for a bilateral series against the West Indies, will join from Miami, while Bumrah and the rest of the team will depart from Mumbai. This series presents a crucial opportunity to assess the team\u2019s preparations and Bumrah\u2019s comeback.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
