#IndvIre: India reach semi-finals after defeating Ireland by 5 runs

India entered the semi-finals of the tournament by defeating Ireland by 5 runs under the Duckworth-Lewis rule in an important match played at St. George's Park on Monday under the ongoing Women's T20 World Cup in South Africa. This is the third time in a row that India has made it to the last four of the mega event. 



Chasing 156 runs to win from India, Ireland got off to a very bad start and lost two wickets in the very first over. On the very first ball of the innings, Amy Hunter was run out trying to take the second run, then Renuka bowled Pendergast on the fifth ball of the same over, then the Irish team immediately came on the backfoot, but here Gabby Lewis (32 not out) Run) and Captain Laura Denly (17 not out) Run batted very well according to the requirement.

Due to the rain that surrounded the field, both of them troubled Harmanpreet Kaur by collecting good runs in a few overs keeping the target set by the DRS rule in front. And when the game was stopped due to rain, Ireland's score was 54 for 2 in 8.2 overs.


At this time according to the Duckworth-Lewis rule, he was five runs behind India. The game stopped at this stage, then the rain continued to intensify at St. George's Park. And it can also be said that India was lucky here in a way. 


Had Shikha Pandey bowled the seventh and Gaikwad bowled the eighth over of the innings, if the condition of the fifth and sixth overs had been similar or if a few more runs had come in these overs, the Indian camp would have been jubilant. However, in case of non-start of the game, India won this match by 5 runs and managed to make it to the semi-finals for the third time in a row.

The Indian team has reached the semi-finals of the Women's T20 World Cup for the third time in a row. The team was last runner-up in 2020. Smriti Mandhana was chosen as the player of the match.




Mandhana, who became the player of the match, hit nine fours and three sixes in an attractive 56-ball innings. She gave a strong start to the team by sharing 62 runs for the first wicket with Shefali Verma (24) and 52 runs for the second wicket with captain Harmanpreet Kaur (13). A difficult pitch to bat on, Shefali and Harmanpreet struggled to score runs, but it didn't seem to affect Smriti. Shefali hit three fours in her 29-ball innings while Harmanpreet failed to hit a single four in her 20-ball innings. Delany took three wickets while Prendergast took two wickets for Ireland. Arlene Kelly had a breakthrough.



Smriti and Shefali added 62 runs in the first 10 overs. Shefali once again failed to convert her start into a big innings. She returned to the pavilion after being dismissed by Denly. Where Harmanpreet was struggling to score runs, Smriti was stealing runs by running along with taking the ball across the boundary line. She brought up her half-century with a six off leg-spinner Cara Murray, then went on the offensive, hitting Georgina Dempsey for two consecutive fours. He also hit a six against this bowler.

Denly brought Ireland back into the match by dismissing Harmanpreet and Richa Ghosh (0) on consecutive balls. Although this had no effect on Smriti, he hit a four and a six in Denali's over after hitting two fours against Kelly. He was caught by Prendergast in an attempt to hit another six. Deepti Sharma (zero) also returned to the pavilion on the next ball. Jemima Rodrigues hit two fours in the last over to take the team's score past 150. He was stumped on the last ball. He scored 19 runs in 12 balls with the help of three fours.
