England vs Ireland third women's ODI live updates

Over‑by‑over coverage of the women's One‑Day International at New Road highlighted a strong start for England as they moved to 10‑0 in the second over, with Lauren Bouchier striking a straight‑down‑the‑ground four and Katie Dunkley yet to add to the scoreboard. The match also marked the retirement of Irish bowler Kelly, who delivered her final delivery for Ireland in the same spell. Early momentum swung in England’s favour when Welsh Fire’s Hannah Prendergast opened the innings with a wide‑apart delivery that proved effective, and Dunkley was subsequently given out lbw after a ball nipped back, though an immediate appeal and video review revealed an inside edge.

The early overs underscored England’s aggressive intent, with Bouchier’s boundary setting the tone and the Irish side grappling with the loss of a seasoned bowler. As the innings progressed, both teams prepared for the next phases of the contest, with the outcome of the match still to be decided.
