England Women and Ireland Women will turn their attention to the T20Is as they prepare to lock horns in the opening T20I of their three-match series on Saturday at Castle Avenue, Dublin. This clash follows an exciting three-match ODI series, where England emerged victorious by 2-1.

The preceding ODI series produced spirited performances from both teams. England Women dominated the initial two games, showcasing their strong form. However, Ireland Women bounced back remarkably, clinching a win in the third and final ODI. 

As the teams transition to the T20 format, England Women will look to build on their ODI success. The team has been in formidable form and will aim to continue their winning streak in the shorter format. This series is also consequential because T20I World Cup is just a month away and they would look to get their combinations right. 

On the other hand, Ireland Women will be eager to capitalize on their ODI triumph and showcase their ability in T20 cricket. Their performance in the final ODI suggests they have the talent and determination to compete fiercely in this format as well. 

Ireland T20I squad: Gaby Lewis (c), Ava Canning, Christina Coulter Reilly, Sarah Forbes, Amy Hunter, Arlene Kelly, Aimee Maguire, Jane Maguire, Leah Paul, Orla Prendergast, Una Raymond-Hoey, Freya Sargent, Rebecca Stokell, Alice Tector

England T20I squad: Kate Cross (c), Georgia Adams, Hollie Armitage, Hannah Baker, Tammy Beaumont, Mahika Gaur, Ryana MacDonald-Gay, Charis Pavely, Paige Scholfield, Seren Smale, Bryony Smith, Mady Villiers, Issy Wong
