The fourth game of the T20I series between Ireland women and the Netherlands women will be played on July 30 at The Village in Dublin. Ireland have sealed the series with one game to go. They have been brilliant so far as the Netherlands women have struggled to find form.

In the third T20I, the Netherlands side posted 109 on the board with five wickets down. Miranda Veringmeier was the standout performer for them as she top-scored with 60 off 50 balls. None of the other batters applied themselves as the team couldn’t post a healthy total on the board.

The total didn’t prove to be enough as Ireland women chased the target down with ease. Ireland’s chase was led by Gaby Lewis. Opening the batting, she smashed a quickfire half-century as she helped her side get across the line in the 12th over.

She remained unbeaten on 52 off 29 balls and her innings comprised of 11 fours. The Irish side beat the Dutch side by six wickets to win the series with one game still to play.

With the fourth T20I scheduled for July 30, the hosts will be eager to win the series 3-0. The Netherlands, on the other hand, will be looking for a consolation win.

Pitch Report

As seen in the series so far, the pitch plays true throughout the course of the match. It is good for batting and the batters can play free-flowing strokes once settled. The ball comes nicely on to the bat and there’s enough pace on the wicket for bowlers to hurry the batters. With the rain around, expect the deck to assist the pacers from both sides.
