IND-W vs IRE-W Live Streaming, 2nd ODI: The India Women’s (IND-W) cricket team will face Ireland Women’s (IRE-W) team in the second ODI of the series at Niranjan Shah Stadium, Rajkot, on January 12, 2025.
Following a commanding six-wicket victory in the first ODI, the hosts will be eager to seal the series with another victory. Ireland, on the other hand, is in a must-win situation. Their valiant effort in the opening game, led by skipper Gaby Lewis, showed promise, but they need a collective team performance to stay alive in the series.

The weather in Rajkot is expected to be warm and sunny, with no chance of rain. Fans can expect uninterrupted cricket under ideal conditions.
The pitch at the Niranjan Shah Stadium is a batting paradise. The flat track offers consistent bounce and pace, making it a dream surface for batters. Bowlers, especially spinners, might find assistance later in the game as the pitch begins to wear.
India’s dominant performance in the first ODI showcased their depth and form. Pratika Rawal’s match-winning 89 runs and Tejal Hasabnis’ composed 53* helped the team chase a competitive target. Skipper Smriti Mandhana will lead the side again, supported by a strong bowling attack featuring Titas Sadhu and Priya Mishra.
Key Players: Smriti Mandhana, Pratika Rawal, Deepti Sharma
Ireland will look to their captain Gaby Lewis to repeat her stellar knock of 92 from the first ODI. The team’s middle order needs to step up, and bowlers like Orla Prendergast and Georgina Dempsey must deliver breakthroughs to keep the Indian batters in check.
