IRE-W vs SCO-W Match Preview

Ireland Women will face Scotland Women in the 13th match of the ICC Women's World Cup Qualifier on Friday in Lahore. Both teams lost their first games so they now need a win to remain in the hunt. In previous meetings, the West Indies have gained the upper hand—it has been more than two decades since their last loss to Ireland in 2003. That history gives them an advantage going into this one.

IRE-W vs SCO-W Probable Winners:

Despite a shaky start in the first match, the Scotland Women have every reason to be confident against Ireland Women—they have not lost to them in eight ODIs. Their primary concern is how heavily they rely on Amy Hunter. Her quiet outing could have serious consequences for them. Ireland's top order is good, but the rest of their batting does not inspire much confidence. If their bowlers repeat their performance from Game 1, things could get interesting. Still, given the head-to-head record, it's difficult to overlook the West Indies as the safer choice. Considering the team combination, Ireland Women is expected to win this match.
