Tigress spinners dismiss Ireland for 185
Spinners from the Bangladesh women's team took all 10 wickets to dismiss their Irish counterparts for 185 in the third WODI, setting a 186-run target to secure a 3-0 series sweep over the visitors at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka today.

Leg-spinner Fahima Khatun took three wickets, while off-spinners Sultana Khatun and Nahida Akter each claimed two, in another strong performance from the Bangladesh women's bowling attack. Irish captain Gaby Lewis top-scored with 52 off 79 balls, and Orla Prendergast and Amy Hunter contributed 27 and 23 runs, respectively. However, the rest of the Irish batters struggled after opting to bat first.
Ireland appeared to be on track to surpass the 200-run mark for the first time in the series, reaching 121-4 in 33 overs. However, Shorna Akter and Sultana Khatun struck in consecutive overs, reducing them to 123-6. Late contributions from Arlene Kelly (18), Alana Dalzell (19), and Cara Murray (13) helped push the total past 180. Fahima took the final wicket, dismissing Aimee Maguire (3) off the last ball of the innings.
Earlier, Bangladesh had already won the first two matches, securing an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
