IRE-W Innings:
India let Ireland off the hook with their pathetic fielding as visiting skipper Gaby Lewis carved out a classy 92 to lift her team to a respectable 238 for seven in the first women's ODI on Friday.
Opting to bat, Ireland were in deep trouble at 56 for four in the 14th over, but Lewis and Leah Paul (59 off 73 balls) added 117 runs for the fifth wicket to steer their team to safety. Lewis scored her runs in 129 balls, lacing the knock with 15 boundaries.
Aided by at least three clear dropped catches and a few misfields, the duo of Lewis and Paul went about their job in a calculated manner and brought a semblance of stability to the Ireland innings while putting together the team's first-ever century partnership against India.
India made light work of the target as they reached 241 in just 34.3 overs with six wickets in hand. Pratika Rawal scored 89 and Tejal Hasabnis slammed 53 not out to guide India to a lead in series. Left-arm orthodox spinner Aimee Maguire took three India wickets but her bowling partners could not produce a similar performance.
