SA-W vs IRE-W 1st ODI Match Preview:

The rain spoiled the third and final T20I between South Africa and Ireland, resulting in no result. South Africa was able to win the T20I series 2-0 after winning the first two games. These two teams will now face each other in the three-match ODI series. The first ODI is scheduled to start at 1:30 PM IST on Saturday at Buffalo Park in East London. 

South African women have opened doors for some new faces. The hosts have rested several senior players. The ODI series won't have Marizanne Kapp, Chloe Tyron, Nadine de Klerk, and a few others as participants. So, it will be an opportunity for new faces to showcase their talent. For Irish women, they have a pretty similar team that competed in the T20I series. So, they have an outside chance to challenge this South African team and try to get them down.
