by


India are set to face Ireland in the third and final ODI of the series at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot, on Wednesday, January 15. Having already secured an unassailable 2-0 lead, the hosts will look to wrap up the series in style and complete a clean sweep with another dominant performance.

India’s dominance and Ireland’s struggle in the series

India have displayed exceptional form in the first two matches, with standout performances from both experienced and young players. Jemimah Rodrigues’ maiden international century in the second ODI was the highlight so far, Pratika Rawal also made her presence felt consecutive half-centuries.  The team’s bowlers have been equally impressive, consistently dismantling Ireland’s batting line-up. On the other hand, Ireland  have faced a tough time adapting to Indian conditions. Despite individual contributions in both the games, the visitors have struggled to put up competitive totals. Their bowling unit has found it challenging to contain India’s powerful batting line-up, often conceding runs at a brisk pace.

Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium Pitch Report:

The Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot is renowned for being a paradise for batters, with its surface offering consistent pace and bounce. The hard pitch ensures that the ball travels smoothly onto the bat, enabling batters to play their shots freely from the very beginning. Early overs tend to be challenging for bowlers, as containing runs on such a surface can be tough. However, as the match progresses, spinners are likely to come into play, especially during the middle overs when the pitch might start to slow down. Dew could also play a decisive role in evening games, giving an advantage to the team batting second.
