India, having secured two convincing victories, will be looking to complete a clean sweep of the women's ODI series against Ireland in the third and final match. The Indian team is brimming with confidence after a series of impressive batting performances, particularly from Pratika Rawal and Smriti Mandhana, who have formed a formidable opening partnership. Despite their strong batting, India's bowling has shown some vulnerabilities, allowing Ireland to score a respectable 254/7 in the previous match. The absence of key players like Shafali Verma and Harmanpreet Kaur has given opportunities for emerging players to shine. The series has highlighted the impressive performance of Pratika Rawal, who has made the most of her chances. The Irish team has been led by the strong performances of Gaby Lewis, Christina Coulter-Reilly, and Leah Paul, but their fielding has been a concern. The match is scheduled to begin at 11 am in Rajkot.

The Supreme Court of India has ruled that a daughter has an indefeasible right to secure educational expenses from her parents, who can be compelled to provide necessary funds within their means. This ruling came in a matrimonial dispute where a daughter studying in Ireland refused to accept Rs 43 lakh given by her father towards her studies, which was part of the total alimony being paid to her mother. The court stated that the daughter has a fundamental right to pursue her education and that the parents can be compelled to provide necessary funds within their financial resources. The court also granted a decree of divorce by mutual consent to the estranged couple, directing them to abide by the terms of a settlement agreement they had reached.
