Gaddafi Stadium

Ireland Women will face Scotland Women in the ICC Women's World Cup Qualifier, and their match is scheduled on April 18, 2025. The teams are going to clash at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, at 2:30 P.M IST.

Facts:

  • Ireland Women’s wicket-keeper batter, Amy Hunter, is the second highest run scorer of the tournament with 201 runs in four innings.
  • Scotland Women’s Katherine Fraser is the third leading bowler so far with eight wickets in four innings.

Ireland Women vs Scotland Women Chances of Winning

Ireland Women’s drought of wins came to an end after they faced Thailand Women in the last match and took advantage of their obvious upper hand. The former put on their best batting performance of the season as they scored 305 runs; wicket-keeper batter Amy Hunter and skipper Gaby Lewis were the top batters with 76 and 75 runs, respectively. Leah Paul’s unbeaten 67 was also of great help and the others made minor contributions to aid their total. Thailand Women’s chase was made difficult by Ireland Women’s bowlers who managed to bundle out the opposition for 259 to take home a solid 46-run triumph.

Scotland Women, on the other hand, have been quite inconsistent in the tournament so far and they suffered their second defeat at the hands of Bangladesh Women last time out. After the latter scored 276 runs, Scotland Women were incredibly close to chasing it down with 242 runs on the board. After a majority of their top and middle order failed, the lower order had to pick up the slack as Rachel Slater and Priyanaz Chatterji were tied for first place with 61 runs each. Wicket-keeper batter Sarah Bryce was the only other contributor with 42 runs but with the rest of the team not pulling their weight, Scotland Women had to succumb by 34 runs.

  • Ireland Women chance of winning - 69%

Ireland Women vs Scotland Women Betting Tips

Scotland Women to score low before first dismissal

Pippa Sproul and Abbi Aitken-Drummond have averages of 9.00 and 11.25, respectively, which shows that both openers are struggling severely in the tournament. The latter opened with Darcey Carter in the first match where they posted 48 runs on the board but after the latter had to forfeit the tournament due to injury, the team’s first wicket took a beating. Together, Sproul and Aitken-Drummond have scored 12, 13 and 4 runs in the last three matches. It is safe to say their partnership needs a great deal of improvement which is unlikely to happen imminently.

Ireland Women vs Scotland Women Toss Prediction

Gaddafi Stadium does not have a particularly batting friendly wicket which is made clear by the average first innings score of 220 after five matches this season. However, in a surprising turn of events, the teams batting first have the upper hand in the tournament so far with four wins out of five games. Batting first is going to be the sought after option in the upcoming game.

Weather Report

The skies look clear at Lahore with no possibility of rain but the sun will be beating down quite badly with the temperature going up to 38 degrees Celsius.

Ireland Women vs Scotland Women Betting Odds

Ireland Women to have a better opening partnership than Scotland Women

Scotland Women’s opening totals have not been adequate at all in the tournament so far as Pippa Sproul and Abbi Aitken-Drummond have added 12, 13 and 4 runs to the first wicket in the last three matches. They are well off the mark compared to their upcoming counterparts, Sarah Forbes and Gaby Lewis, who have secured first partnerships of 88, 6 and 57 runs for Ireland Women in the previous three outings. The disparity between the sides is quite glaring and the latter will be endorsed to achieve a better result than Scotland Women’s openers.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Ireland Women

Scotland Women were relegated to third place in the standings with two wins and two losses along with a net run rate of 0.136. Their loss against Bangladesh Women could have been avoided if the batters did not collapse so quickly. On the contrary, Ireland Women have been much worse in fourth place with three wins, a defeat and a net run rate of -0.052. Even though the latter have been struggling for a majority of their campaign, they have a solid 4-1 record against Scotland Women. Ireland Women have the firepower to turn their form on its head and claim their second win.
