IR-W vs ZM-W Head-to-Head Records

In this rivalry, IR-W vs ZM-W played 9 T20I matches, with IR-W winning all of them and completely dominating ZM-W. So, in the next match, ZM-W will look to open their account, while IR-W will try to maintain a perfect record in this rivalry.

IR-W vs ZM-W Weather & Pitch Report at Pembroke Cricket Club

The weather in Sandymount for the third T20I between IR-W and ZI-W looks to be pleasant. A warm temperature of around 17°C is expected with clear skies.
If we look at the pitch at the Pembroke Cricket Club, it is known as bat-friendly throughout the game. Batters are favoured in both innings. It is a completely flat pitch with plenty of runs and little assistance for bowlers. According to the pitch's overall statistics, teams that bat first have scored an average of 150 runs. So, given this pitch, it is best to field first and chase the target in the second inning, restricting the opponent to the chasable target. Previous records indicate that the team that fielded first performed better at this venue.

Record of Chasing Teams at Pembroke Cricket Club

According to previous statistics, this venue has hosted only 8 T20I Women’s matches. Of those, the team that fielded first won 5 matches, contributing almost 62%, while the team that batted first only won 3 matches. This clearly showed that, if the toss was won, fielding first could be a viable option at this ground.

IR-W vs ZM-W Dream11 Toss Prediction

We expect the IR-W captain, Gaby Lewis, to win the toss, and she may choose to field first on this ground. As previous statistics show, the team that fielded first had more success than the team that batted first. So, IR-W might try to do the same by restricting ZM-W to a chaseable total and then chasing it down with their batting lineup.
