Performance in Previous Matches:
- Match 1 (vs West Indies, May 28): Lost by 8 wickets. Ireland posted only 103 and struggled against WI’s pace attack.
- Match 3 (vs Pakistan, May 31): Won by 7 wickets (record chase). Chased down 177 in 19.1 overs, with standout batting from Rebecca Stokell (60*) and Amy Hunter (56).

Team Performance
Ireland Women Team Preview
Ireland Women’s Team Prediction – Ireland Women have been in good form throughout this series and have seen regular contribution to the batting of Gaby Lewis as well as Leah Paul. Their bowling attack, anchored by Arlene Kelly and Lara Maritz, has been effective in keeping opponents at bay in the middle of the overs. The fielding of Ireland has been slick and has seen a number of key runs and catches having an impact on the outcome of a match. If they play on their own, the players benefit from being familiar with the pitch and conditions of the weather that typically favour seam and swing bowling within Ireland.
Pakistan Women Team Preview
Pakistan Women are coming into this match resolute from previous victories throughout the tournament. Bismah Maroof and Nida Dar have led with confidence while Nashra Sandhu and Fatima Sana’s speed pair has produced reliable wicket takers. Pakistan are well known for handling pressure well while Aliya Riaz exploits slow patches effectively as their spinner. Fitness standards have significantly improved, giving Pakistan serious contention going into this encounter.
Pitch Report & Toss Condition
In Ireland, the pitch is forecasted to be green and will most likely favor seamers. It will probably become more favorable to spinners as the game goes on. In T20 women’s cricket, scores ranging from 140 to 160 runs are considered competitive. Because of the forecasted weather conditions, the toss will be critical. When conditions are overcast and the ball is likely to swing more during the early stages of the game, teams will opt to bat second.
