BANW vs IREW Match Prediction & Analysis
Bangladesh Women launched their campaign for direct qualification to the 2025 ODI World Cup impressively, defeating Ireland Women by 154 runs in the first ODI in Dhaka. The teams are set to face each other again in the second ODI on Saturday. Coming into this series, Bangladesh needed to win at least five of their next six ODIs to secure a direct spot in the upcoming ICC Women's World Cup. They’ve already secured one victory and still have the opportunity to win two more in the following matches. On the other side, Ireland Women face a demanding challenge ahead, especially given the slow and spin-friendly pitch conditions.
TEAMS PREVIEW
Bangladesh Preview
In the first ODI in Dhaka, Bangladesh Women delivered a strong performance. Choosing to bat first, they racked up 252/4 in 50 overs. Sharmin Akhter was the standout player, scoring an impressive 96 runs from 89 balls. Opening partners Fargana Hoque and Murshida Khatun were equally impressive, with Hoque drilling 61 runs and Khatun adding a solid 38 to the scoreboard.
The home side’s top three look very strong and are expected to continue their good form. Then they also have the experienced Nigar Sultana in the middle order.
Marufa Akter, Sultana Khatun, and Nahida Akter combined for eight wickets in the opening ODI, putting a stranglehold on Ireland’s chase. With Fahima Khatun and Rabeya Khan also in the mix, this bowling unit has been hard to contend with in these conditions and will likely cause more problems for the Irish lineup in the upcoming matches.
Key Players: Sharmin Akhter, Sultana Khatun, Nahida Akter
Bangladesh Predicted Playing XI:
Fargana Hoque, Murshida Khatun, Sharmin Akhter, Nigar Sultana (c & wk), Shorna Akter, Sobhana Mostary, Marufa Akter, Sultana Khatun, Nahida Akter, Fahima Khatun, Rabeya Khan

Ireland Preview
Ireland Women struggled in the opening ODI, bowled out for just 98 while chasing a target of 255. Sarah Forbes, Orla Prendergast, and Laura Delany got off to decent starts but none of them could turn their knocks into meaningful contributions. For Ireland to mount a better challenge, Prendergast, Delany, and captain Gaby Lewis will need to step up and play big innings. Leah Paul, with 224 runs in her last 10 matches, is another key player to keep an eye on.
On the bowling front, Ireland lacked bite in the first game, struggling to adjust to the conditions. It may take some time for their bowlers to find the right rhythm. Arlene Kelly and Freya Sargent have been the most reliable bowlers recently, and much will depend on their spells.
Key Players: Laura Delany, Orla Prendergast, Freya Sargent
Ireland Predicted Playing XI:
Sarah Forbes, Gaby Lewis (c), Amy Hunter (wk), Orla Prendergast, Laura Delany, Leah Paul, Una Raymond-Hoey, Arlene Kelly, Ava Canning, Freya Sargent, Aimee Maguire

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The pitch at the Shere Bangla National Stadium is on the slower side, favoring spinners and slower bowlers more. Batters need to spend some time on the wicket to get used to conditions first before they can start hitting their shots. Spinners will find slow turn on the wicket throughout the game.
The weather in Dhaka will be pleasant with plenty of sunshine throughout the day.
BANW vs IREW Pitch Report
The average first-innings score in women’s ODIs at the Shere Bangla National Stadium is just 154, with Bangladesh’s 252-4 in the last match being the highest team total recorded at the ground. If Bangladesh get the chance to bat first in the second ODI, they’ll likely aim for a score in the 240-250 range again. If Ireland bat first, setting a target around 180-200 would be their goal.
Toss: To Bat
In the first ODI, Bangladesh won the toss, chose to bat first, and registered a big win. Both captains will look to bat first in the second game too.
BANW vs IREW
Winning Prediction
Bangladesh Women have had the upper hand over Ireland Women in ODIs, and their strong start to this series makes them clear favorites for the second match. They are well-versed in these conditions and will rely on their spinners to stifle the Irish batters once again. With World Cup qualification in the balance, Bangladesh will be eager to secure this game and wrap up the series. Ireland will need to raise their game considerably to challenge the hosts; otherwise, Bangladesh's winning streak against them is likely to continue.
Bangladesh Women are our picks as the winners of the second ODI.
