West Indies Women secured a dominant 3-0 series victory over Ireland Women, concluding with a 64-run win in the third one-day international at Bready. Batting first after losing the toss, the West Indies posted a total of 257 all out in their 50 overs. Stafanie Taylor was the standout performer, scoring her second century of the series with 105 runs off 113 balls. Ireland's bowlers, including Orla Prendergast, Georgina Dempsey, and Jane Maguire, each took two wickets.

In their chase, Ireland's captain Gaby Lewis led the charge with a spirited 50 off 59 deliveries, featuring seven fours and two sixes. However, the Irish team was ultimately dismissed for 193 in 43.1 overs. The West Indies' bowling attack proved too strong, with Karishma Ramharack taking three wickets, including the crucial dismissal of Aimee Maguire for 13, to seal the series whitewash.
