Women’s T20I Quadrangular Series, 2019: Match 9, Ireland Women vs Thailand Women: Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update

Thailand Women made it to the news last week when they cruised to their 17th consecutive victory in the T20I format. Thus, they recorded the longest winning streak in the history of the format. In this process, Thailand broke the record held by Australia Women with 16 consecutive T20I wins. However, Thailand’s happiness didn’t last strong until Scotland edged past them in a thriller on Monday.

With three wins from four matches, Thailand is placed on the top of the points table. They will now face Ireland Women on Tuesday morning. The two teams faced off in a league match last week that was reduced to ten overs-a-side. Thailand could only post 54/4 while batting first in that match. They return strong with the ball and limited Ireland to just 50/7 and won the game by four runs.
