Betting Tips

Nigar Sultana to emerge as the top batter of the contest

4.20

Nigar Sultana has an excellent T20I record for Bangladesh Women. She has scored a T20I hundred and leads the Bangla batting order.

The method of dismissal for the first wicket to fall for Bangladesh to be caught

1.55

Bangladesh opening batters are likely to go for arial shots early on to try and wrest the initiative with field restrictions in the powerplay overs. Thus, there is a greater possibility of the first wicket falling via catch.

Bangladesh Women to score over four runs in the first over of their innings

1.77

Bangladesh's top order is in good nick. They have batters such as Dilara Akter, who are in good form. So, you can expect the Bangla batters to score over four runs in their first over of the match.

Bangladesh Women handed the Ireland Women a 3-0 defeat in the 3-match ODI series. This ODI series was a part of the ongoing Ireland Women's cricket team visit to the Bangla nation for a series of ODI and T20I games. We have now moved to the T20I section of the series. The first game of the series will be played at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on the 5th of December afternoon. This article will closely examine the match prediction, pitch report, match preview, and betting tips for this encounter.

Bangladesh Women have played against Ireland Women on eleven occasions in the T20I format. They also hold the edge 8-3 in the T20I format. Bangladesh Women have won the last four T20I games against Ireland Women. The last victory for Ireland Women came in 2018.

BAN W vs IRE W Team Previews

Bangladesh Women

Bangladesh Women are going into this game with three defeats in a row in their last three T20I games against South African Women, West Indies Women, and England Women. Their last victory in a T20I game came against Scotland Women in the first week of October.

One of their most dependable batters in the T20I format is their skipper, Nigar Sultana. Bangladesh has announced its squad for the first two T20I games. Nigar Sultana has a T20I hundred to her credit. She has also hit eight fifties.

Murshida Khatun is another dependable batter for Bangladesh Women. She has scored six fifties in her T20I career and is one of the pillars of the Bangladesh batting line-up. Ritu Moni is one of the crucial all-rounders for the Bangladesh unit.

The likes of Nahida Akter are leading the Bangladesh bowling attack. This left-arm orthodox bowler has picked up over 100 wickets in this format for her country. Another reliable leggie for Bangladesh is Fahima Khatun. She has been bowling in recent games and will be one of the go-to bowlers for Bangladesh Women.

Ireland Women

Despite the beating the Ireland Women received in the ODI series, they cannot be written off in this format. Ireland Women have had mixed fortunes in their last few games.

Gaby Lewis is one of the leading batters for Ireland Women in recent games. She has scored 349 runs in her last ten games with an average of 34.9 and a reasonable strike rate of 130.71.

BAN W vs IRE W Toss Prediction

We have seen three women's T20I games played at Zahur Ahmad Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong, Bangladesh. The teams batting first have won two of these games, while the teams chasing have won one. Going against the modern T20 trend of fielding first, it might be a better idea to bat first here. Facing spinners on a wearing track is unlikely to be a good proposition.

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram is likely to be dry as usual. These tracks will help the spinners as usual. Most batters have struggled to get the ball away on these tracks. This is good news for the bowlers who have become used to getting a mauling in T20 games. We are expecting bright and sunny conditions at this venue, and there is no possibility of getting showers during the contest.

The temperature will be close to 26 degrees.

BAN W vs IRE W Betting Tips

Although Bangladesh Women handed a heavy defeat to the Irish Women in the ODI format, you can expect the T20I format to be another thing altogether. The clean sweep in the ODI series is bound to have boosted the morale of the Bangladesh team and discouraged the Irish Women. Superior spinners, home advantage, and a batting lineup in form all point to continued success for the Bangladesh Women.

Bet on Bangladesh Women to win.
