England's triumphant series against Ireland in the ongoing 50-over matches has propelled several players up the latest ICC Women's ODI rankings. The team has clinched a 2-0 lead in the three-match series, showcasing their dominance.

Tammy Beaumont, with a stellar unbeaten 150 in Belfast, has jumped to 13th in the batter rankings, marking her as one of the top century scorers in women's ODI cricket. Meanwhile, stand-in captain Kate Cross ascended to second in the bowlers' rankings after a brilliant six-wicket haul in the series opener, now standing at 703 rating points, just behind Sophie Ecclestone.

Both Beaumont and Cross made remarkable comebacks after missing out on the Women's T20 World Cup squad. Rising star Lauren Filer also advanced to 60th among bowlers. Ireland's Freya Sargent and Orla Prendergast progressed significantly, while South Africa's Marizanne Kapp reclaimed the number one all-rounder position. England's comprehensive victories in the series first by chasing 211 with ease and then trouncing Ireland with a 275-run victory, set the stage for the final ODI in Belfast.
