T20 World Cup: West Indies women's head coach Shane Deitz believes his side received a timely reminder of the challenges that await at the ICC Women's T20 World Cup after Ireland produced a spirited performance to secure a historic victory in Dublin.

Ireland registered their first-ever T20I win over the West Indies, with all-rounder Orla Prendergast emerging as the standout performer. The 22-year-old followed up a disciplined bowling display with a match-winning 71 off just 46 balls, guiding the hosts to a memorable triumph and the top of the tri-series standings.

Deitz admitted Prendergast's counterattacking innings proved decisive as the West Indies struggled to wrest back momentum once it began slipping away.
