For Ireland Women, this is their first game of the tourney. They would want to begin their journey well. Although they are the weakest team in their group, they would want to give a good fight to all the teams in their group. Even if they lose, it would not be taken as a negative as long as they play some smart cricket and give the other four teams of their group— New Zealand Women, South Africa Women, Australia Women and Sri Lanka Women a good fight. If Irish Women play with determination, grit and a thorough hard work in the middle, they can certainly make the opposition toil hard to win against them. Talking of the Group B, there are three subcontinent teams— India Women, Pakistan Women and Bangladesh Women, besides England Women and West Indies Women.
Squads:
New Zealand Women: Suzie Bates(c), Erin Bermingham, Felicity Leydon-Davis, Katey Martin, Morna Nielsen, Rachel Priest (wk), Anna Peterson, Hannah Rowe, Lea Tahuhu, Sophie Devine, Leigh Kasperek, Sara McGlashan, Thamsyn Newton, Katie Perkins, Amy Satterthwaite
