Stay tuned for the presentation...
Earlier in the innings, Ireland Women were on track to score above 160 runs but they lost wicket in a flurry in the death which left them with an under-par score. Only, Orla Prendergast and Gaby Lewis turned up with the bat for them. West Indies Women were lethal with the ball in the fag end of the innings. During the chase, it went down till the wire but West Indies Women managed to come out on top in the end.
Ireland Women would be a bit disappointed as they could not seal the game here. Ireland Women were unable to keep the pressure in the death overs and that cost them the game here. Also, things could've been completely different only if Ireland Women were much more clinical in the field. Well, they says "Catches win matches" and that's what the Irish could not do. Leah Paul and Laura Delany took a wicket each.
West Indies Women started the chase slowly but their skipper, Hayley Matthews has made sure to get her side over the victory line here. West Indies Women lost two wickets quite early and found it difficult to score runs with ease. Hayley Matthews though made the most of her reprieve. She was well supported by Chinelle Henry to get the innings back on track. There were some hiccups in the end but West Indies Women came out on the right side.
Phew! What a match this turned out to be. Ireland Women put in a run for their money but they are yet to record a win in the T20 World Cup. Nevertheless, Ireland Women would feel they are going on the right trajectory here to become a fine propect in the coming future. Delight for West Indies Women, as they walk back with two crucial points.
