After a convincing seven wicket T20 win over Denmark last week, Ireland Under 19’s have named their squad for a 50-over fixture with the North-West Warriors, who include four players involved in last this week’s Ireland A match at Lord’s.
There is only one change to the squad that beat Denmark at the weekend, with David Murphy not in the squad this time, although the match winning pair with the bat, William McClintock and Adam Dennison will both be involved again.

Head coach Ryan Eagleson said ahead of the match,

“This is another great test for the under 19 team in the build up to the world cup qualifier later in the year, hopefully the guys can build on last week’s win over Denmark with another strong performance.”

North-West Warriors have also named their team for the match, with several fringe players getting an opportunity to impress early season.

Several established Warriors players are missing the match, with Craig Young still at Sussex and Brian Allen coaching with Ireland under 15’s over the weekend are just two of those missing out. The match will also see several Warriors playing for the Ireland under 19 team, giving Bobby Rao a fantastic opportunity to see people in action at this early stage of the season.

The game will take place at Strabane on Sunday and will be a 10.45 start.
