Today will be the 3rd match of T20 series between Ireland Women vs Bangladesh Women. We saw Ireland women win the series in the 1st and 2nd match. Today's match is not important for Ireland women, but if Bangladesh women lose today then the series will be a whitewash. Today, Bangladeshi women will continue to do their best to avoid being whitewashed. We saw Bangladesh women whitewash Ireland women in ODI series. But now Bangladesh women are going to be whitewashed in T20 series. Bangladesh women's batsmen are not able to bat well in T20 series. Ireland women scored 134 runs in the 2nd match which was not difficult to chase down. But Bangladesh women eventually lost by a big margin. However, looking at the current performance of Bangladesh women, I think Bangladesh women will lose today as well and get a whitewash in the T20 series. Do you think Bangladesh will lose and be whitewashed today?
The third and the final match between the Bangladesh women and Ireland women is in progress and Ireland need 26 runs in 18 balls. This is very much achievable when you know that they still have 6 wickets in hand. Rebecca Stokell and Laura Delany are well settled and they should take Ireland to victory. Earlier the openers also played good for Ireland and they made the first wicket partnership of 55 runs. If Ireland wins today, this means they will whitewash the T20 series 3-0.
If one observe Bangladesh Women team batting in the beginning, one would not have guessed that they would be able to give a target of only 123 runs in the end. When the Bangladesh women's team scored 102 in 13.4 overs for the loss of only 2 wickets, at that time everyone would have guessed that the team score could have been above 150 in the match, but the Bangladesh women's team only fell wickets in the end. If they could have given a target of 140 in this match, Bangladesh women's team would have had a chance to win.
We saw in the end that the Ireland women's team was also under a lot of pressure. In the last 7 balls required 16 runs, which was definitely difficult to score, but the Bangladesh women's team showed a lot of incompetence in this place. If they could have checked that over, then this match would have been under their control. The Bangladesh women's missed out a win.
