IRE-W vs ENG-W 2nd ODI: hopeful England eye series win
After leading the three-match series 1-0, England Women are gearing up for a showdown in the second ODI against Ireland Women, scheduled to be played on Monday at Civil Service Cricket Club, Belfast. Kate Cross played a starring role in England’s victory in the first game, claiming six wickets, and belting (38) unbeaten.
