Cricket: Ireland vs India 3rd T20I abandoned without a ball bowled

Match called off due to rain

No result in the deciding match of the series

The third and final T20I match between Ireland and India has been abandoned without a ball being bowled due to persistent rain in Dublin.

The match was scheduled to start at 2:30 pm local time but was delayed due to rain. The umpires inspected the ground at 3:30 pm and decided that it was unfit for play.

This means that the series ends with India winning the first two matches and Ireland winning the third. India won the first match by seven wickets and the second match by four runs.

The abandonment of the third match is a disappointing end to the series, but it was the right decision in the circumstances.
