IRELAND T20 SQUAD

3 July 2008

Cricket Ireland this evening released their squad for the forthcoming ICC Twenty20 World Cup Qualifiers which will be held in Belfast from August 2-4 at Stormont.

 
The squad is boosted by the availability of their county based players, with William Porterfield returning to captain the squad.
 
Former skipper Trent Johnston will also feature, and both Alex Cusack and Kevin O'Brien return from injury.
 
Phil Eaglestone's inclusion is dependent on the results of his visit to a specialist this weekend, with Reinhardt Strydom placed on standby should he be declared unfit.
 
The squad in full is as follows:
 
  • William Porterfield (captain) Gloucestershire
  • Niall O'Brien (Northamptonshire)
  • Eoin Morgan (Middlesex)
  • Kevin O'Brien (Railway Union)
