Jane Maguire has been approved by the ICC Technical Committee to be called into the Ireland Women’s T20 World Cup squad to replace Ava Canning.
Canning was sent for a precautionary scan yesterday after she raised concerns over her back after the match against Scotland last Saturday. Unfortunately for the Leinster all-rounder, the scan has revealed a stress fracture in her back and she will fly home to begin recovery and rehabilitation immediately
Replacing Canning is 23-year old Jane Maguire from The Hills Cricket Club. Maguire – whose sister Aimee is also part of the squad – was unlucky to miss out on the squad originally after recovering from a knee injury sustained during the summer.
Maguire will join up with the squad tomorrow.
