Ireland announce 14-member squad for T20I and ODI series against West Indies

New Delhi [India], May 14 (ANI): The Ireland cricket team have announced 14-member squads for the upcoming ODI and T20I series at home against West Indies, which will take place later this year in June, as per the ICC official website.
Led by Paul Stirling, the two lineups feature multiple new names, including 22-year-old top-order batter Cade Carmichael and 24-year-old pacer Tom Mayes, who have received maiden call-ups in the ODI squad. Pacer Liam McCarthy has also received his maiden call-up in the T20I squad.
The hosts will be missing out on the services of experienced pacer Mark Adair during the ODI series, with the quick still recovering from an injury. Adair is expected to be available for the subsequent T20I series.
"Selection decisions for these two series were challenging, given the growing depth of talent we have in Ireland," said Andrew White, Ireland's national men's team selector, as quoted by ICC.
On the newcomers in the squad, White said, "Cade Carmichael has been in the pathway for several years now. His talent, stroke play, and resilience were on full display for the Wolves in April, and his rise over the last couple of years is a real demonstration of how consistent performances - and his ability to adapt his game to conditions - have been recognised with an International call-up. In a similar vein, two seam bowlers - Liam McCarthy and Tom Mayes - have also been recognised for consistency and demonstrating the ability to step their game up a level at each time of asking."
