Australia’s tour of Ireland hangs in the balance due to lack of money and venue
Ireland Cricket’s High Performance Director Richard Holsworth says that the series will not be shifted to England. Australia vs Ireland (Image Credit- Twitter X) Under the ICC’s Future Tour Program (FTP), Australia’s senior men’s cricket team was scheduled to tour Ireland for three ODIs and a one-off T20 match in August-September this year. However, Australia’s tour of Ireland is stuck in limbo due to shortage of funds and lack of match venues. It is noteworthy that when last time Australia was on England tour for the ODI series, the only ODI match was played between Ireland and Australia in England. However, now before this big tour of Australia, Ireland can host a tri-series with Netherlands and Scotland. So, after winning the only test match against Afghanistan, they also have to play a test match with Zimbabwe, but due to lack of resources, the venues for these matches have not been finalized yet. Richard Holdsworth gave a big statement regarding this tour of Australia On the other hand, Cricket Ireland’s High Performance Director Richard Holsworth says that the series will not be shifted to England. “Broadly speaking, it’s a real challenge to distribute what we have in FTP,” Holsworth said as quoted by ESPN Cricinfo. We have more matches proposed than the number of venues we have got. To be honest, after Covid the cost of organizing matches in Ireland has increased significantly. Hotel prices and the cost of temporary infrastructure at the stadium have varied greatly. Apart from this, on shifting the Australia tour to England, Holsworth said – England’s cricket schedule is very busy at that time. Obviously we are not going to consider playing a team like Australia on a small county ground in England. But we are thinking about all those options whether we can host Australia in the coming summer?
