Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Zimbabwe vs Ireland Women 1st ODI Match 2024
Zimbabwe Women last played an ODI series vs Thailand in Thailand and suffered a big defeat by 3-0 margin. Mary-Anne Musonda will lead the Zimbabwe ODI squad. The last time Ireland toured Zimbabwe was way back in October 2021 when they bagged a 3-1 ODI series victory. Zimbabwe will miss their star players Josephine Nkomo and Modester Mupachikwa. Beloved Biza, former U19 cricketer Adel Zimunu, and batter Pellagia Mujaji will be a part of the squad.
Mary-Anne Musonda, Beloved Biza, Francisca Chipare will be batters to watch out for. Musonda is Zimbabwe's second leading run scorer with 192 runs. Biza and Chipare are new to the team but they have done well in domestic cricket and will be eyeing a good show in the ODI series.
Kelis Ndhlovu is their leading wickettaker with 10 ODI wickets. Nomvelo Sibanda has taken five wickets for the team while Loreen Tshuma is also a good option.
Zimbabwe Women have not played a lot of ODI cricket. They last featured against Thailand where they lost 3-0.

Orla Prendergast, Freya Sargent, Rebecca Stokell have been consistent performers for Ireland Women in T20Is and they would look to replicate their performance in the ODIs as well.
