West Indies Women vs Ireland Women, 1st ODI: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details

Ireland Women are all set to travel to the Caribbean on a three-match limited-over tour, starting on June 26. The first ODI match of the series will commence at 7:30 pm IST at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St Lucia. The two teams head into this fixture after being on the receiving end of some thrashing in their last three games.

West Indies Women have only been able to secure a consolation victory against New Zealand Women in their last five games. They even hosted England Women at home and lost the series by a shambolic margin of 3-0. However, their record against Ireland Women is outstanding and they would be hoping that it stays this way as they head into this series.

Ireland Women, too, have not had the best of outings in their preceding fixtures. They did have some success against Netherlands Women where they comprehensively outclassed them in all three ODI matches. However, when they toured Pakistan last year, Ireland Women got a harsh reality check as they could not withstand the pressure and were blown away by a heavy margin.

As we gear up for the upcoming series, here is all you need to know about the first ODI match of the series.

West Indies Women vs Ireland Women Pitch Report

The deck at the Daren Sammy Cricket Stadium is well-balanced. Along with the breathtaking views that the stadium offers, batters can get off to a good start once they see off the new ball well. Bowlers, most particularly the slower bowlers, can also reap the rewards if they get it in the right areas.

Past data suggests that batting last should not be a sign of concern as teams batting last have won on more occasions (22) as opposed to teams batting first (13).
