Ireland Women made it two wins from two in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier with victory over Zimbabwe on Monday afternoon.
A 130 run-partnership between Amy Hunter and Gaby Lewis set up an imposing target of 177 for Zimbabwe to chase down. They couldn’t do so, with Ireland maintaining their perfect start courtesy of a 56-run win.
Ireland beat the United Arab Emirates in their opening fixture.
Ireland’s third game in Group B is on Wednesday, when they face Vanuatu at the Tolerance Oval. With four points on the board and two matches remaining, victory over Vanuatu could seal Ireland’s place in the semi-finals.
Winning the group would see them then play the runner up in Group A for a place at the World Cup in Bangladesh later in the year.
That position is currently held by Scotland.
