3rd ODI: Bangladesh beat Ireland by 7 wickets
Mirpur, 2 December.
Ireland 185 (50 overs: G Lewis 52, O Prendergast 27, A Hunter 23; F Khatun 3-43, S Khatun 2-29, N Akter 2-55)
Bangladesh 186/3 (37.3 overs: S Akhter 72, F Hoque 61; A Maguire 2-38)
Nigar Joty collects the trophy and 6 Championship points (BCB)
Two changes today for the Girls in Green with Laura Delany and Ava Canning replaced by seamer Alana Dalzell and leg-spinner Cara Murray. Welcome first runs of the series for skipper Lewis with more from the usual suspects Prendergast and Hunter, but a longer tail today without Laura Delany in the side left their total looking distinctly vulnerable. In helpful conditions Ireland's young spinners have made no impact in the series to date, a total of 3 wickets costing 200. Seemingly as always it’s Orla Prendergast with the early breakthrough but Fargana Hoque and Sharmin Akhter put Bangladesh in the driving seat with a partnership of 143 for the second wicket. Not enough runs for Ireland to defend with bowling that lacked any semblance of a threat, all over with twelve overs to spare.
