Commentary on 5 Sports Extra 2 @BBCSounds.
@hypocaust.bsky.social292 would be Ireland's highest successful ODI chase, and the fifth highest by any team in women's ODIs.
@hypocaust.bsky.socialHaving been 260/4, England are bowled out for 291 (48.5).
Dunkley 119 (119), her career best
Gibson 41 (37)
Murray 4-56
Kelly 1-37
@rafnicholson.bsky.socialI don't think Ireland will chase that, but it should be a real concern for England (and for Charlotte Edwards) that after looking on course for a record total, they then subsided to 291 all out. #ENGvIRE
@hypocaust.bsky.socialGibson run out for 41 (37).
England 290/9 (48.0) still likely to post an unassailable total, but not making the most of the death voers.
@hypocaust.bsky.socialBest ODI figures for Ireland women against England:

@hypocaust.bsky.socialMacDonald-Gay caught for 7 (11) by Murray off Kelly, who will sign off with at least one wicket in her last international.
England 288/8 (47.4)
