Ireland World Cup Squad 2026 – Captain and All Players

Ireland has announced its 15-member squad for the World Cup 2026. Although Ireland is not considered a very strong team, their performances in ICC events have always been known for causing upsets. By upsets, it is meant that whenever big teams need points for qualification, Ireland has consistently created serious difficulties for them.
