Ireland Women have started their World Cup Qualifiers with a bang. They beat UAE Women in their first game by six wickets and followed it up with a comprehensive 56-run win against Zimbabwe Women.
In their previous game, Ireland posted a formidable total of 176-3 after being asked to bat first at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. Openers Amy Hunter (71 off 50 balls) and Gaby Lewis (69 off 47 balls) laid the foundation for the total with a fantastic 130-run stand in 14.2 overs. The openers have been in great form and will pose a serious challenge to Vanuatu’s inexperienced bowling line up.
Another player to keep an eye out for is Laura Delany. She is averaging 45 this year in T20Is at a strike rate of 130. Furthermore, she has also taken 12 wickets in this period at an economy of 5.52.
Cara Murray, Arlene Kelly, and Eimear Richardson have taken three wickets each in the tournament and should be quite a handful against Vanuatu’s batting unit.

After a spirited start to their campaign, where they defeated Zimbabwe Women, Vanuatu Women slipped badly in their next encounter against the Netherlands Women. Set a target of 155 to chase at the Tolerance Oval, Vanuatu were shot out for just 54.
The inexperience in their batting clearly showed, and a tougher challenge awaits them against Ireland. For them to have a chance, Rachel Andrew must step up. She has been their in-form batter in recent times, scoring 312 runs in her last 10 matches at a strike rate of 106.
Valenta Langiatu (184 runs in the last 10 matches at a strike rate of 83) is another one who can have an impact. If these two fail, however, Vanuatu might find themselves in trouble once again.
In terms of bowling, the team will depend on Nasimana Navaika (6 wickets in this tournament in just two matches at an economy of 5.25) and Selina Solman (20 wickets in the last 10 matches at an economy of 4.79) to do the main damage.

The pitch at the Tolerance Oval has been a true one, with something in for both batters and bowlers. It is usually good for batting in the first half and becomes slower as the game progresses. However, since this is a night game, the impact of dew might make things easier for the batting side in the second innings.
The weather in Abu Dhabi will be cloudy, with chances of some thunderstorms in the afternoon.
The average first innings score at the Tolerance Oval over the last eight games is 130. In this tournament, the highest total posted at the venue is Scotland Women’s 161-3 versus Uganda Women. A total of around 130-140 will be par here.
Six of the four matches played at the Tolerance Oval in this tournament have been won by the team batting first. In this game, we reckon if Ireland wins the toss, they will like to bat first and put on a big total. Vanuatu, on the other hand, will look to bowl first and try and restrict the opposition for a low score.
This will be the first international match to be played between Ireland Women and Vanuatu Women. Vanuatu shocked the world by defeating Zimbabwe in their first game. However, that doesn’t take away from their issues. Their batting line up looks wafer thin, and they will need their bowlers to produce another outstanding performance to have any chance. Our analysis says that Ireland Women are favorites to win this match and will dominate Vanuatu thoroughly.
Back Ireland Women as the winners of this match.
