That concludes the presentation and that also wraps up our coverage of the 10th T20 Women’s World Cup 2023 fixture between Pakistan and Ireland. This day belongs to Muneeba Ali and her record-breaking century has boosted Pakistan's morale after a heavy defeat in their opener. Join us tomorrow for a Group A blockbuster as Australia takes on high-spirited Sri Lanka. For now, this is Megh Mandaliya, signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Amit Das, and scorer/analyst Yogesh Kumar. Cheers and have a good night! 
Bismah Maroof (Pakistan Women Captain): "A clinical performance in every department and I'm really proud of the way Muneeba batted. I hope she can continue like that. Yes, I said to Muneeba you're the set batter and just go and time the ball properly. Hopefully, we can perform more in the next match. We've taken out the positives of the India match and executed our plans in this match. We can still improve on the pace bowling and can do better in the next game." 
Laura Delany (Ireland Women Captain): "We underperformed today and would be disappointed. It's a nice  group to have to. They are such good players and they are learning game by game. Orla Prendergast is a prime example of that. We want to sit down and analyze on the areas we can improve for the next game. Lovely venue to play on and a lovely wicket to bat on. Muneeba Ali batted really well."
Muneeba Ali (Player of the match): "I think we had a start and had a good partnership with Nida Dar. She was telling me to keep going and around 13th over I realized I could score a hundred. Yeah, I was playing with the field and trying to contemplate where I can score a boundary. Dar also helped me in the middle. My teammates are happy and I am also happy for my hundred. Everyone was enjoying and we had a good match today. I would want to dedicate my award to my captain and my teammates." 
Muneeba Ali is the player of the match for a scintillating 102(68). 
01:23 AM IST| Amit: Pakistan tastes first victory as they defeated Ireland by 70 runs, all thanks to a spectacular knock of Muneeba and spinners wicket-taking deliveries

Earlier in the day, Ireland won the toss and elected to bowl first against Pakistan.From ball one, it was one girl show all the way. Muneeba Ali took her time to get her eyes settle in. Had a 101 run partnership with Nida Dar, she got out after scoring 33 off 28. Muneeba paced her innings really well, not only she brought up her maiden fifty but also she became the first Pakistan centurion in this format of the game. On the other hand, Ireland's sloppy fielding cost them the match, they have missed countless opportunities today. Only, Kelly had a decent outing as she picked up two wickets against 27 runs.

Ireland has a shaky start as they lost two wickets in the powerplay itself. For a brief point sof time, it looked Orla will take the game away but didn't happen. It was Pakistani spinners all around the park, they got purchase off the surface. Nashra Sandhu picked up her best figures in T20I cricket (she had 4 scalps tonight); Made things tough for the Irish girls, they kept on losing wickets. Bismah changed her bowlers pretty well proving her team with breakthroughs at regular intervals. This win will place them at third position in the points table, with a healthy NRR of 1.54. 
Pakistan Women won the match by 70 runs.
16.3 S Iqbal to L Paul
W BOWLED 'EM! There it is. A much-needed victory for Pakistan and they are still alive in the Women's T20 World Cup 2023. An arm ball on the good length with a hint of turn away from the off-stump mark, Paul transfers her weight back and looks to nudge it away but the ball breezes past the edge and crashes the stump. A comprehensive victory for Pakistan and they have thwarted Ireland by 70 runs.
