If they're allowing their international game be a laughing stock then as is then why not allow associates hitch up with a test team but continue for their associate at one day or 20/20?

Re: Irish cricket bandwaggon
Great to see them qualify - apart from one slip up, early on, against Namibia, and a fright against Italy, they cruised through. I doubt any of the teams will fancy playing them as they have more than enough ability to cause an upset in T20. Just hope they can keep improving during the wait for Tes...

Kidney has a track record of inconsistent play right back to Munster. He gets his team up for the odd 'big' game then has them playing like toothless fuckers the rest of the time.

There's no better feeling than playing sport as a kid. Whatever it is, running, swimming, tackling, shooting, kicking.
