Cricket Ireland has named the Under 15 squad to play two fixtures against Jersey in late July, following on from the squad's successful recent tour to England during which they won three of four matches. Instonians player Matthew Humphreys is the Northern Cricket Union representative in the squad.

Brian Allen, Head Coach of the Under-15s, said of the tour to England, 'I was pleased with the bowlers who performed well as a unit. Definitely the stand-out performance was Matthew Humphreys 4 for 18 in our third match against Berkshire, which removed the opposition top order and set us up for a comfortable win. That tour really put the depth of young Irish cricket talent on display, and we'll be looking to build on this in Jersey'.

Tim Tector will once again lead the side, with the 12-player squad being:

• Tim Tector - Captain (YMCA/LCU)
• Nathan McGuire - Vice-Captain (Rush/LCU)
• Ben Brownlee (YMCA/LCU)
• Diarmuid Burke (Rush/LCU)
