ICC World Twenty20 Qualifiers

Ireland name full-strength Twenty20 squad

Cricinfo staff

July 3, 2008

Ireland have named a strong squad for the ICC Twenty20 World Cup Qualifiers which will be held in Belfast between August 2 to 4.

The inclusion of the county players who missed this week's tri-series in Scotland will be a major boost. A weakened team were thrashed by New Zealand, losing by a record 290 runs, and then suffered a second defeat to the hosts.

William Porterfield, who opted to remain with Gloucestershire, returns to captain the squad, while former skipper Trent Johnston, who stood down last season, also makes a comeback.

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.

Ireland squad William Porterfield (capt), Niall O'Brien, Eoin Morgan, Kevin O'Brien, Andre Botha, Andrew White, Kyle McCallan, Alex Cusack, Gary Wilson, Trent Johnston, Thinus Fourie, Peter Connell, Phil Eaglestone, Gary Kidd.
