Women’s national squads of Ireland and Scotland will be travelling to La Manga in Spain in November 2020 to play a series of five matches comprising of 50-overs and T20I games.
Steven Knox, head coach, said on Cricket Scotland website “The squad are both delighted and excited that they will be playing an international series in Spain against Ireland this November.
“It will give the players a great opportunity to show that all the hard work they’ve done in training over the past ten months, and in the A team games that were played in August and September, will hopefully pay off against a team that are ranked above us in T20I cricket.”
The exact dates for the matches to be played between November 20th and 29th will be announced in due course of time, with two matches in 50-overs format and three T20I games. Both Ireland and Scotland players have been playing domestic cricket at home and games in England (Scotland A squad played few matches) in the past couple of months as International cricket has remained absent due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Scotland national squad members Sarah and Kathryn Bryce performed admirably with strong numbers to their names in the recently concluded Rachael Heyhoe Flint trophy (List-A) in England, while Ireland players had a 8-game domestic series played between them in the 50-overs format as well.
