IREW vs SLW Match Prediction & Analysis
The Women’s Asia Cup champions are coming to Ireland for a 2-match T20I series followed by a 3-match ODI series. The first of these matches will be played at the Pembroke Cricket Club in Dublin.
Sri Lanka are enjoying a great run of form winning back-to-back games. They won all of their matches in the T20 World Cup Qualifier and then carried the momentum to the Women’s Asia Cup where they stayed unbeaten.
Ireland Women played their last T20I against Thailand in the UAE where they bowled out the opposition for just 79 runs. And before that, Ireland toured Zimbabwe in January where they won all of the T20Is and ODIs.
Both teams are coming into this series unbeaten and will be confident of getting off to a winning start in the 1st T20I.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Ireland Women Preview
Ireland Women pack a strong overall side and should be confident of taking on Sri Lanka Women who will be missing their skipper in the T20Is. Laura Delany will be leading a strong Irish lineup that features their key batters like Gaby Lewis and Amy Hunter as openers.
The two openers will be crucial in setting the tone of the innings for Ireland Women. Both Lewis and Hunter made significant contributions at the top on their tour of Zimbabwe.
Batting all-rounder Orla Prendergast was another match-winner for Ireland during that series at number 3. She continued to be part of the squad and will be one to watch out for.
Skipper Laura Delany comes in at number 4. It is a solid-looking batting lineup with almost everyone playing at an impressive strike rate. The middle-order is key to a strong total and needs to build partnerships.
While they’ve been in great touch recently, whether they can face the in-form Sri Lanka bowling attack and still survive needs to be seen. Ireland Women will be facing their biggest challenge of this year so far.
Prendergast and Delany also play a key role with the ball and can deliver crucial breakthroughs. The all-rounders allow for variety in the bowling attack and will test the visitors.
Ireland Women Predicted Playing XI:
Amy Hunter (wk), Gaby Lewis, Orla Prendergast, Laura Delany (c), Rebecca Stokell, Jane Maguire, Arlene Kelly, Ava Canning, Leah Paul, Cara Murray, Alana Dalzell
Ireland Women Actual Playing XI:
Laura Delany, Rebecca Stokell, Freya Sargent, Ava Canning, Una Raymond-Hoey, Gaby Lewis, Leah Paul, Amy Hunter, Orla Prendergast, Arlene Kelly, Cara Murray
Sri Lanka Women Preview
Sri Lanka Women will be missing their skipper for the T20Is. She has been a major factor in their winning and her absence will affect the visitors’ batting strength quite a bit.
Vishmi Gunaratne will be the centre of attention in the top-order followed by Harshitha Samawickrama in the middle-order. A lot will depend on these two when it comes to scoring runs and posting a competitive total on the board.
Chamari Athapaththu has carried the Sri Lankan batting on her shoulders all along with very little from others. There are the likes of Hasini Perera and Anushka Sanjeewani in the middle-order who can make a significant impact.
But very rarely has anyone stepped up to be the match-winner with the bat. The right-arm off-break bowler Kavisha Dilhari has been the number 4 batter for Sri Lanka women in recent matches.
She will be one to watch out for. If the top-order collapses, there is a good chance of the hosts demolishing this batting lineup. However, in the bowling department, Sri Lanka Women are quite promising and can put the hosts in trouble.
Udeshika Prabodhani, Sugandika Kumari, and Inoshi Priyadarshani are the key wicket-takers in this squad who can turn the game around completely.
Sri Lanka Women Predicted Playing XI:
Vishmi Gunaratne, Kaushani Nuthyangana, Harshitha Samarawickrama (c), Hasini Perera, Anushka Sanjeewani (wk), Kavisha Dilhari, Nilakshi de Silva, Inoshi Priyadharshani, Udeshika Prabodhani, Sugandika Kumari, Achini Kulasuriya
Sri Lanka Women Actual Playing XI:
Vishmi Gunaratne, Hasini Perera, Harshitha Madavi, Anushka Sanjeewani, Nilakshi de Silva, Kavisha Dilhari, Inoshi Fernando, Achini Kulasuriya, Sugandika Kumari, Udeshika Prabodhani, Sachini Nisansala

IREW vs SLW
Winning Prediction
This should be a close contest between the Asia Cup winners and Ireland Women’s T20I team. Both have plenty of match-winners in their squad and though Sri Lanka rely heavily on a couple of batters, they’ve got match-winning bowlers in the side. Since Ireland have got a strong batting order and the visitors lack reliable players in the batting order, we reckon the home team will have a slight edge going into this match and will start as favorites to win.
