MCC WOMEN CONFIRM 2025 CRICKET LEINSTER TOUR

The MCC Women’s team will visit Ireland for the second time, playing a two-match white-ball series against a Leinster President’s XI in May – with representative players set to feature on both days.

Meena Baskarasubramanian, CL 2025 President commented as follows:

"We are grateful to everyone at MCC Ireland and the MCC itself, for making this tour happen.”

“These games are set to be high-quality fixtures for some of our players - the more games and experiences like this our players have, the better. The Leinster squad will feature a mixture of senior players and younger players from our representative pathway.”

Emma Marsh, MCC Women’s Cricket Manager commented as follows:

“Having first toured in Ireland back in 2022, we are keen for this tour to become a regular feature in our fixture list. We are always eager for more quality games, and to support teams with their growth, so hopefully we could make it a longer trip in future!"

The MCC Women’s section is very excited by this opportunity to play in Ireland in 2025 – and we hope to welcome some Irish players/members into our ranks for these matches. Women’s cricket in Ireland is developing year-on-year, and we hope this can become an annual feature of our playing calendar.

“Women’s cricket globally is on the rise and we see these sorts of tours as providing positive experiences to those involved – on both sides, and giving people lots of opportunities to fulfil their potential.”
