WI-W vs IRE-W 13th Match Probable Winners:

Both teams are pretty evenly placed at the points table in this year’s world cup edition. However, earlier records suggest that WI-W looks like a far more experienced side than IRE-W. Meanwhile, IRE-W does not have such a prolific T20 world cup record. They have had to qualify on numerous occasions to make their presence felt in several T20 World Cup editions. Unlike their rival, WI-W has all the experience they need to stage a remarkable turnaround hence a win for WI-W is certainly on the cards. Considering the team combination, West Indies-W is expected to win this match.
