Teenager Lucy O’Reilly took an impressive three for 19 but Pakistan’s total proved more than enough as Ireland could only manage 101 for nine.

Only Clare Shillington (27) and Isobel Joyce (30) - sister of former Ireland and England international Ed - reached double figures for Ireland, who lost heavily to Australia in their first match.
