After winning the first T20 match in the three-match series, is Ireland Women’s T20 Team Stronger Than Pakistan? We are all ready for the second T20 match between Ireland Women’s and Pakistan Women’s as it starts at 4 PM local time and 8:30 PM as per the Indian Standard Time. The date is 8th August, whereas the venue is the Civil Service Cricket Club in Belfast.
