The Villagers will be without the services of leg-spinning all-rounder Greg Thompson, while pace-man Phil Eagleson is and injury doubt.

But in captain Lee Nelson and Ireland Under-19 starlets Adam Dennison and James McCollum they have quality with the bat, while Gary Kidd is having a fantastic season with the ball for the NCU side.

For the North West side, David Rakin has been in fine form for both club and province in the opening slot and captain Davy Scanlon will be looking to the Newsatalk Inter-Provincial Trophy Man of the Series to provide the impetus at the top of the order.

Craig Young has also been doing the business with the new ball on the international stage for Ireland, and his extra pace will no doubt cause the Waringstown batsmen trouble early on.

Play gets underway at Strabane on Sunday at 1pm
