Ireland announce 14-member squad for home ODI series against Australia

Dublin [Ireland], July 17 (ANI): Ireland Cricket on Monday named their 14-member squad for the upcoming home ODI series against Australia, starting 23 July.
The squad marks a recall for bowler Jane Maguire, who has completed her recovery from injury. Her sibling Aimee also features in the squad, marking the first time that two sisters have been named together in an Ireland senior squad. 
Laura Delaney will lead Ireland and will play three ODI fixtures against Australia between July 23 and 28. All three matches of the series will be played in Clontarf, Dublin. The ODIs will be a part of the ICC Women's Championship 2022-25 fixtures. 
"It’s a hugely exciting summer of international cricket – we’ve just returned from a tour to the Caribbean, and now have a home series against Australia and then the Netherlands away," on the upcoming assignment, Irish wicketkeeper-batter Amy Hunter said in an official statement released by ICC. 
"This series against the Aussies is our only action at home this summer, which I’m looking forward to. It will be a tough challenge, so it'd be great to get a really good crowd in. Up in Bready last year there was a great crowd, and it really made a difference when they got behind the team and supported us. It just creates such a great atmosphere for cricket to be played in," she added.
Ireland Women’s squad: Laura Delany (captain), Ava Canning, Georgina Dempsey, Amy Hunter, Arlene Kelly, Gaby Lewis, Louise Little, Jane Maguire, Aimee Maguire, Cara Murray, Leah Paul, Orla Prendergast, Rebecca Stokell, Mary Waldron. (ANI)
