Ireland clearly went in with a good positive mindset, choosing to bowl with the pitch a little green and a bit of moisture. Sometimes you have a plan and it doesn't come off.

It's a great opportunity for Jodi Grewcock. She can show everyone what she's in the England squad for. She's had a really domestic season, but she hasn't yet shown what she's made of in England colours.
Eng 94-1
Three runs off Cara Murray's over.
Sophia Dunkley picks up a single and moves to 47 - three short of a well-crafted half-century.
But she will have to wait a little longer to reach there as it's time for drinks at New Road.
England are having to resort to running between the wickets to keep the scoreboard ticking.
They have not had a boundary since the 11th over.

England in the powerplay this series: 72-0, 79-2, 61-0
Average: 106.00 - Run rate: 7.1
Another tight over from Ireland, coming from Cara Murray.
Sophia Dunkley moves to 41 from 51 balls.
A brief moment of panic off the final delivery but Jodi Grewcock scrambles home just in time to complete a risky single.
Four runs come from Kia McCartney's latest over.
You feel Ireland need another breakthrough and soon if they are to have any chance today.
Jodi Grewcock is the new batter at the crease and is off the mark with a single from her first ball.
She will hope to keep the momentum going alongside Sophia Dunkley.

Soft dismissal for Maia Bouchier. She looks frustrated, just trying to tuck into the leg side, it looks like a simple shot but perhaps a bit of extra bounce on the delivery.
Bouchier c Lewis b McCartney 39 (Eng 73-1)
As soft a dismissal as any!
Kia McCartney strikes for Ireland as Maia Bouchier is pouched by captain Gaby Lewis after a thick leading edge.
The England opener departs after a promising start.
Alice Tector would feel she should have done better there.
Sophia Dunkley slaps Louise Little through backward point and Tector sprints hoping to cut it off near the rope, but her dive goes in vain and the ball slips underneath her for four.

England have picked up where they left off in the previous ODI. We said Ireland winning the toss and choosing to bowl was a risk, it seems to have back-fired.
Phil Long
BBC Test Match Special statistician
Ireland have struggled with run-rates in this series. In the first two matches they have been 7.41 and 7.21.
Powerplay done and dusted and England will be pleased with this start.
They have scored at almost six an over and both openers look set in the middle - Maia Bouchier on 33 and Sophia Dunkley on 25.
Can they keep building and turn this good start into a big total?

It was a lovely bit of innovation from Dunkley. She just had to get her head out of the way to get it up and over. England are flying here.
Another change for Ireland as Louise Little replaces Arlene Kelly.
But runs keep coming for England - 10 runs from that over, including a boundary apiece for Maia Bouchier and Sophia Dunkley.
Ireland have gone with three spinners today for this third and final ODI.
One of them is into attack now - Kia McCartney.
The off-spinner begins well but gives too much room for Sophia Dunkley off the penultimate delivery and it is dispatched over cover for four.
Sophia Dunkley is starting to find her rhythm now.
Her first boundary of Orla Prendergast's fourth over is slashed away through backward point before she gets on one knee and helps the ball over her shoulder to the rope.
Impressive stuff from the England batter.
Henry Moeran
Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
The danger for Ireland, winning the toss and bowling first, was if they didn't get wickets. If England get settled it could get ugly.
More runs for England.
Sophia Dunkley has not looked entirely in control out there in the middle so far, but that four through midwicket should give her some confidence.
A boundary each for Dunkley and Maia Bouchier in that over.
