The Ireland selectors have named a squad of 12 for their crucial ECB County Championship Division Two clash with Devon.
Mary Waldron again leads the Ireland side in this must win clash against 2nd place Devon at Axminster on Sunday July 20th. Ireland currently lie on 4th position in the Division Two table following their impressive win over Worcester on Sunday last and are 32 points a drift of top placed Lancashire with a game in hand, and just four points behind Devon.
The Ireland side sees two changes from that which completed that 105 run victory over Worcester, with Amy Kenealy and Jennifer Gray coming into the side in place of Fiona Gill and Rebecca Rolfe.
Cecelia Joyce has been the stand-out performer with the bat for Ireland over the last number of County Championship matches with two half-centuries in the last two outings, while opening bowler Louise McCarthy has been in-form with the new ball; coach Trent Johnston will be looking for more of the same as his charges go in search of the play-off spot.
