We are done with the national anthems. Smriti Mandhana and Co. break from the huddle and take their respective positions in the field. Gaby Lewis, the Irish skipper in her 50th ODI game, walks out to open alongside Sarah Forbes. Titas Sadhu will kickstart proceedings with the new ball for India. Two slips in place. Off we go...

We are moments away from the first ball, but before that, Smriti Mandhana and Gaby Lewis lead their respective sides out for the national anthems. It will be Ireland's national anthem first, followed by the Indian national anthem.

With Kaur and Renuka missing, the responsibility shifts to the rest of the batters, including Harleen Deol, Pratika Rawal, and Jemimah Rodrigues, to step up

Notably, Smriti Mandhana scored five consecutive half-centuries, only missing out in the final ODI and will look to bring the same form as she leads the team in the absence of regular captain Harmanpreet Kaur, who has been rested alongside fast bowler Renuka Singh

Smriti Mandhana emerged as the top run-scorer across formats, scoring 148 runs in the ODI series, including two half-centuries, and 193 runs in the T20s, with three successive fifties

It's the ODI World Cup year. Five teams (India, Australia, England, South Africa and Sri Lanka) have already qualified, there are 3 more slots up for grabs and Ireland, who have qualified for the World Cup Qualifier, couldn't have asked for a better challenge than locking horns against India for a 3-match ODI series.
