Lewis Named Captain For Ireland’s ODIs Against Sri Lanka After Ankle Injury Rules Out Delany
ODI World Cup: Gaby Lewis has been named captain for Ireland’s upcoming women’s ODIs against Sri Lanka after regular captain Laura Delany was ruled out due to an ankle injury.
Cricket Ireland said in its statement that Laura rolled her ankle in the field on Tuesday, when Ireland beat Sri Lanka for the first time in women’s T20Is, and ligament damage was suspected.
“She underwent scans today and has been ruled out of the three ODIs,” said Cricket Ireland, who have announced Jane Maguire as Laura’s replacement. In Laura’s absence, Gaby will step into the captaincy with Orla Prendergast becoming interim vice-captain.
