Warriors name squad for Lightning clash
The North West Warriors have named their 12-man squad for Thursday’s penultimate Interprovincial Cup game against Leinster Lightning at North County.
There are no surprises in the panel although Ryan Macbeth is a little unfortunate to miss out from the 13 selected for the ill-fated T20 series. That however shows the quality of seam options currently available to Ian McGregor as his side heads south in good spirits.
The Warriors need a win to keep alive their involvement in the race for honours. They then take on the Northern Knights on Monday at Eglinton knowing that a win in both of those games could be enough to claim the trophy, although it is a big ask.
Action at Balrothery gets under way at 10.45 am.
The squad in full is-
Andy McBrine (captain)
William Porterfield
Will Smale
Craig Young
Marcus Poskitt
David Rankin
Aaron Gillespie
Ross Allen
Graham Hume
David Scanlon
Graham Kennedy
Stuart Thompson
