Pre-Match Analysis

Sri Lanka Women:

Sri Lanka will be entering this match with confidence, especially after their strong showing in the first T20I. Harshitha Samarawickrama has been in excellent form, anchoring the batting lineup with a solid 68 not out in the last game. The team will likely look to her and other key players like Chamari Athapaththu to provide a solid foundation with the bat.

On the bowling front, Udeshika Prabodhani was instrumental in restricting Ireland’s chase. Her early breakthroughs will be crucial again, especially in swinging conditions, which are often a feature of the pitches in Dublin. The Sri Lankan spinners could also play a bigger role as the pitch slows down, with Inoka Ranaweera expected to lead the spin attack.

Ireland Women:

Ireland, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing start to the series. Their batting lineup struggled against the disciplined Sri Lankan attack, with none of the batters able to convert their starts into a significant score. Gaby Lewis and Laura Delany will be key to turning their fortunes around. They need to provide stability at the top of the order and build partnerships to set up a competitive total or chase down a target effectively.

In terms of bowling, Ireland will hope for early wickets to put pressure on the Sri Lankan batters. Orla Prendergast and Arlene Kelly will be crucial in this regard, needing to exploit any early movement off the pitch. The spin department, led by Cara Murray, will also need to step up, especially in the middle overs, to contain Sri Lanka’s aggressive middle order.

Recent Record
