Australia Women are touring Ireland for three ODIs. Here are the AUS W vs IRE W schedule, full fixtures list, match timings, and venues.

Ireland Women will host Australia for three ODIs, on July 23, 25, and 28, at the Clontarf Cricket Club Ground in Castle Avenue, Dublin. The matches will be part of the 2022-25 ICC Women’s Championship.

The first match has already been washed out without a ball being bowled.

Since June 1987, Australia have played Ireland 15 times in women’s ODIs and have won every time. However, none of these ODIs has been since August 2005.

In July 2001, Australia bowled out Ireland for 132. When it rained, Australia were 119-5 after 36.4 overs, but Duckworth-Lewis calculations revealed that Australia were two runs ahead. It was the only time Ireland came close to beating Australia in ODIs.

More recently, in a 2023 T20 World Cup warm-up match, Ireland famously chased down 169 against Australia to win with two balls in hand – albeit in a different format.

Orla Pendergast, who dismissed Beth Mooney and Meg Lanning that day to finish with 4-0-19-2, is part of the squad in these ODIs as well.

Ireland squad: Laura Delany (c), Mary Waldron (wk), Amy Hunter, Ava Canning, Georgina Dempsey, Arlene Kelly, Gaby Lewis, Louise Little, Jane Maguire, Aimee Maguire, Cara Murray, Leah Paul, Orla Prendergast, Rebecca Stokell
