The ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2023 is now five matches old. We have seen a couple of interesting matches and now it is time for England play their second match against Ireland. 

Ireland will try and punch above their weight and give England a run for the money. On the other hand England will be looking to continue their winning form. In the first match they literally blew away West Indies and Heather Knight's girls will try and repeat the same and move a step ahead on the road of qualification to the next phase of the tournament.

IR-W vs EN-W, Match 6: Top Five Picks

  1. Natalie Sciver-Brunt (EN-W): The English all-rounder did a great job in the first match. Natalie Sciver-Brunt played a steady knock and steered her team across the line. She can also bowl a couple of valuable overs for the team if and when required. 
  2. Amy Hunter (IR-W): The Irish wicket keeper is a pretty steady batter. Hunter might play the role of the stabiliser of the batting line up around which the rest of the batting order revolves. Keeping her in the fantasy XI might turn out to be very beneficial. 
  3. Sophie Ecclestone (EN-W): The left-arm finger spinner is currently the number one bowler in T20I cricket. Ecclestone has found wicket taking form in the very first match and hence is hot-pick for the match, especially on the slow and tiring pitched of South Africa.
  4. Laura Dealny (IR-W): The Irish skipper is a key player in the team composition. If Ireland has to put on an impressive show, Delany will have to play a major role. So, one cannot miss out on Delany for this match. 
  5. Sarah Glenn (EN-W): The wrist spinner looked in decent form with the ball in the first match. Sarah Glenn might turn out to be even more effective against the Irish batting line up.
