The first day is already sold out and the second not far behind. What a tremendous week for women’s cricket!

Starting Friday at Bready, Ireland host West Indies for a three match ODI series. Ireland will be keen to use their recent T20 success against West Indies in the World Cup to motivate them in this 50 over format. In 12 meetings they have only defeated West Indies once.
