Ireland will take on West Indies on 23 November, in Match 3 of the Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2021 in Harare.
Ireland lost Pakistan by seven wickets in the warm-up match. Batting first, they could only manage 192/8. Pakistan chased the target in 42nd over. They will be relying on Gaby Lewis, Laura Delany and Orla Prendergast to change the fortune.
Led by Stafanie Taylor, West Indies clean-swept Pakistan at their own backyard in a three-match ODI series earlier this month. They also thrashed Thailand by 151 runs in their warm-up contest. Taylor, Deandra Dottin and Hayley Matthews hold the key, as they are well ahead on paper against Ireland ahead of the fixture.
