The second game of the T20I series between Ireland Women and Scotland Women will be played on October 24. This will be the last game of this limited-overs series and it will be played at the Desert Springs Cricket Ground in Almeria.
A solid all-around effort from the Irish saw them beat the Scots in the first T20I to go 1-0 up in the two-match series. Ireland were asked to bowl first and they did a fantastic job with the ball, with Alana Dalzell, Cara Murray and skipper Laura Delany picking up two wickets each.
Only Darcey Carter (45) and Megan McColl (19) got to double digits as Scotland were bundled out for 91 in 18.4 overs.
In reply, Gaby Lewis led the charge with the bat at the top of the order for Ireland. She played a composed knock of 53 not out from 51 balls to help her side chase down the total in just 16.3 overs with seven wickets to spare. Olivia Bell grabbed two wickets for Scotland, but they failed to defend the total.
Ireland were brilliant in the first T20I and will be high on confidence. They will look to carry forward the winning momentum and clean-sweep Scotland, who will have to fire in unison to level the series, on Tuesday.
