Ireland on Tuesday announced its 15-member squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 in the USA and Caribbean.
Ireland has been placed in Group A along with India, Pakistan, USA and Canada. It will play its first game on June 5 against inaugural-edition winner India.
Ireland has featured in seven T20 World Cups so far, winning seven of its 25 matches. In 2022, Ireland finished fifth in Group 1 of the Super 12 stage.
The squad will be led by seasoned opener Paul Stirling. The team is gearing up for a tough challenge in Group A, where they will face cricketing giants India and Pakistan alongside USA and Canada.
Stirling, known for his aggressive batting, brings not only his firepower at the top of the order but also valuable experience as captain. He has led Ireland in 22 T20 Internationals before, and his presence will be crucial for the team's performance.
