That is it from this game but don't go anywhere as South Africa Women will take on New Zealand Women shortly. So switch the tabs and join us there. Cheers!
9.34pm
Heather Knight says they have got some superb spinners and they did a great job. Adds it was hard work in the end but two points are important. Shares that in this format, aggression is important. Feels they have good depth in the batting. Hopes for a great game against India.
9.32pm
Laura Delany says it is disappointing to lose but credit to England for the way they played. Adds their top three batted well and the next step is to keep the momentum going. Reckons they are looking forward to the game against Pakistan. Ends by thanking the crowd for the support.
9.26pm
Alice Capsey wins the Player of the Match. She says it is an honor to play for England. On her batting, she says she tries to put pressure on the bowler. Reckons they are confident and enjoying their time. Hopes to continue the way they are playing. On the wicket, it is staying low and holding a bit.

... Presentation time...
9.23pm
Ireland Women bowlers were too wayard in the start and that didn't help them. There was enough in the pitch to test the English batter but their bowling was not good enough. Just as we saw how England lost a bit, Ireland Women would have hoped to bowl much better. Credits to the English bowlers for the way they bowl, the spinners took 8 out of 10 wickets.
9.22pm
A comfortable win for England! They did crawl towards the target in the end but there was never a tense moment. Have to say it was the bowlers who put the two points on the plate. They keep down Ireland from a promising position and had a below-par total to chase. Alice Capsey turned up and looked in hurry as she scored a fifty. England Women were on course to chase it down quickly but lost few wickets and the win was just pushed back.
9.21pm
Just like Ireland, England did start to lose wickets in the later half but they reached the target with ease. Only if Ireland would have managed to score something around 150, the chase would have been tight.

...THE CHASE...
8.13pm
Ireland Women lost 8 wickets for just 25 runs and that tells you the story. From a stage of posting 150 runs, Ireland have fallen well short. Apart from the top four, everyone went for a single-digit score. Now, the batting is done. The spinners are getting enough purchases from this pitch. Can Ireland Women replicate what England players did? We will find out soon.
8.11pm
Ireland could not have started a better way as the openers played some fine shots and were dealing in boundaries. England at that time looked without any answers as the runs were coming easily. However, the spinners got their rhythm lately and the wickets started to come by. It was then the over from Sophie Ecclestone where she struck twice was the turning point. There was no coming back for Ireland from there on. The spinners bossed the show as out of 10 wickets, 8 of them went to the spinners.
8.10pm
Wow! That was quick from England! They did turn up in the later stages and have bamboozled Ireland. What a performance from the English bowlers!

Hello and welcome to the action of group B where we will see Ireland Women take on England Women. We can see the bets are on the latter to win this match comfortably but after seeing Sri Lanka hammer down the hosts in the opening match, we can expect one thing from this minnow teams is a real fight. Ireland Women will kick off their season while England Women have already played one game as they demolished West Indies. To go further in the tournament, it is important for Ireland Women to start positively and kick off with a win however, England Women will hope to keep their favorite tags on without any dirt. Stay tuned for toss and other updates.

...MATCH DAY...
28 Jan, 3.30am
Get ready for the third game of Group B between Ireland Women and England Women at Boland Park in Paarl. The latter is one of the favourites in this edition of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup and on paper, this clash appears to be a mismatch. The English team is a ruthless unit with plenty of firepower in batting and quality in bowling. They are a well-oiled side with all the bases covered and the way they demolished West Indies Women in their tournament opener speaks volumes about their strength. It's tough to find a loophole in their batting department and if anything, their bowling can get better in the Powerplay. Certainly, we cannot talk about Ireland Women in the same vein but their recent achievement of beating Australia Women in one of the warm-up games cannot be undermined. The Irish team has progressed well in the recent past under the leadership of Laura Delany and with star players like Amy Hunter and Leah Paul in their squad, they have the ability to put up a fight. They own a young squad with decent quality and this tournament is going to be a great exposure for them. The men's Irish team has enjoyed success against England in the marquee event, can the ladies do the same? Let's hope for a competitive game.
