Ireland's World Cup Dream Shaken by West Indies Defeat

Ireland's hopes in the Women's World Cup qualifier dim after a six-run loss to West Indies.

Ireland's aspirations of securing a spot at the Women's World Cup later this year face a significant setback after a tense six-run defeat to West Indies in Lahore.

In a rain-affected contest reduced to 33 overs, West Indies posted 181-6. Ireland's bowling efforts, despite Jane Maguire's three wickets, were marred by dropped catches.

Ireland started well in their reply, but wickets fell steadily. Matthews' bowling proved decisive for West Indies.

Ireland's captain Lewis lamented the dropped chances, highlighting their impact on the outcome.

Pakistan leads the table with two wins.
