Cricket Australia’s National Selection Panel (NSP) has named a 14-player squad for the upcoming CommBank Women’s ODI Tour of Ireland and it’s great news for a number of Stars.
Dublin-born fast bowler Kim Garth has been named in a strong Australian squad which will return to Ireland for a bilateral series for the first time since 2015.
Garth made her senior debut for Ireland as a 14-year-old and played 114 internationals before moving to Australia in 2020 to pursue a career as a professional cricketer.
Annabel Sutherland is the other Star to be named as part of the squad.
Australia and Ireland will play three ODIs across six days in Dublin as part of the ICC Women’s Championship.
