Ireland Name Balbirnie-led Squad For Test Against NZ, Stirling, Little Out With Injuries
World Test Championship: Cricket Ireland has announced a squad led by Andrew Balbirnie to take the field when they host New Zealand for a one-off Test match at Stormont, Belfast, from May 27 to 30. Balbirnie is all set to lead the side for the 10th time in the longer format.
Ireland have also confirmed the absence of Paul Stirling, Barry McCarthy, Josh Little, Gavin Hoey, and Jordan Neill, who are all ruled out due to injury. Hoey is sidelined due to a side strain, while Stirling is nursing a calf injury.
McCarthy is ruled out until 2027 following an ACL tear, while Neill is recovering from a shoulder muscle injury, and Campher is yet to resume bowling. Four players – Jake Egan, Tom Mayes, Liam McCarthy, and Reuben Wilson – are in line to make their Test debuts if selected in the playing eleven.
