Ireland Women vs England Women Predictions

Both sides have batters who have been in strong scoring form, but the England side has enjoyed the better form as a team, winning their last five games in a row. Ireland has lost two of their last five games.

England’s Sophia Dunkley has scored 311 runs in her last 10 matches
England’s Danni Wyatt has scored 68, 35, 59*, 20 and 24 runs in her last 8 white-ball innings
Ireland’s Orla Prendergast has scored 282 runs in her last 10 matches
Ireland’s Gaby Lewis has scored 39, 69*, 71 and 38 in her last 6 innings

Head-to-Head

This will be the second T20I meeting between the teams. England won their first clash by 51 runs back in 2012.

Ireland Women Form

Ireland has beaten Pakistan twice and Zimbabwe once in their last five games… but they have suffered losses to Bangladesh and Pakistan. Their last match was a 34-run win over Pakistan.

Amy Hunter (40) and Gaby Lewis (71) shared a 110-run stand for the first wicket. Orla Prendergast (37) kept them on track for a big finish, ending on 167/4 off their 20 overs.

Ireland restricted Pakistan to 133 off 18.5 overs, Arlene Kelly (3/19) starring with the ball.

Ireland Women Team News

Ireland is likely to keep faith with their same starting XI.

England Women Form

England comes into the World Cup off the back of a 5-0 T20I series win over the West Indies and will be full of confidence after beating the West Indies once again in their first match of the Women's T20 World Cup.

The West Indies did well to score 135/7 off their 20 overs, Sophie Ecclestone (3/23) picking up crucial wickets to restrict their opponents.

Sophia Dunkley (34 runs off 18 balls) got England off to a flyer. Nat Sciver-Brunt (40*) and Heather Knight (32*) added an unbeaten 67 for the fourth wicket to see England home with more than five overs to spare.

England Women Team News

England should have a fully fit squad to choose from.

Verdict

Ireland Women v England Women

I am backing England to win. I am also backing Sophia Dunkley to top score for England.

Ireland’s Gaby Lewis is a good bet to top score for her side.
