The Wait Continues For Gaby Lewis!
So far, only 7 Women batters from Ireland have managed to score a ton in ODI's and nonen of them have achieved the feat more than once.
Gaby Lewis is yet to score an ODI ton, but has been dismissed on the scores of 92 twice, and remained unbeaten on 96 and 95.
However, with her 92, she now holds the record of highest-ever individual score by an Ireland Woman batter against India Women in the ODI's.
The previous best was an unbeaten 63-run knock by Caitriona Beggs, back in 2006.
Leah Paul also joins her compatriot in the list, as her 59-run knock is now the third-highest individual score by an Ireland Woman batter against India Women.
Ireland Women have produced consistent performances against the giants of Women's Cricket from past few years, and these are positive signs, ahead of the Women's ODI World Cup 2025, which will be hosted by India, and this ODI series is a great way to prepare for the mega event ahead.
