Scotland Women tour of Ireland, 2021

IR-W vs SC-W 1st T20I Match at Civil Service Cricket Club, Belfast

Preview –

Ireland Women will take on visiting Scotland Women in the 1st of the 4-match T20I series on the 23rd of May. Both sides haven’t played too much International cricket in recent times and it will be a tough challenge for both of them. Having said that, domestic cricket experience will definitely help for sure.

Laura Delany, Gaby Lewis, and Leah Paul are the main pillars of the Ireland Women side, whereas Scotland Women will mainly rely on Kathryn Bryce and Sarah Bryce. Ireland Women have won 2 of the last 3 contests against the Scotland Women.

Pitch Report –

Civil Service Cricket Club has hosted 16 T20Is here in Belfast. Out of them, the team batting second has won 12 of those matches. The surface is likely to assist the bowlers initially and bowling first will be a good advantage.
