WI-W vs IRE-W Match Prediction – Who will win today 2nd ODI match?

West Indies women (WI-W) and Ireland women (IRE-W) got off to a blistering start to their multi-format white ball series. Both sides took on each other in the first ODI of the series on Monday, June 26 at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St. Lucia. The hosts went into the tie as favourites, and the Hayley Matthews-led side delivered as they registered a brilliant 58-run victory.

Talking about the game, the West Indies elected to bat first, and through Matthew’s masterful ton, the side notched up 297 runs on the board. Looking to chase the target down, Ireland did put in a valiant effort, as Gaby Lewis and Laura Delany looked to be in the flow. However, the Windies’ bowling proved to be too much to handle for Ireland. As the second ODI of the series approaches, it could be interesting to see which side comes out on top when they face each other in the forthcoming clash on Wednesday, June 28.
