India beat Ireland by seven wickets in the rain-affected tour opener to herald a winning start for new captain Hardik Pandya. The start of the match was delayed due to rain, then it became a 12-overs-a-side affair.
Riding Harry Tector's unbeaten 64 off 33, Ireland posted 108/4. India then chased down the target in 9.2 overs with Deepak Hooda carrying the bat with an unbeaten 47 off 29. Yuzvendra Chahal, who registered figures of 1/11 in three overs, won the player of the award.
