Speaking after the squads were announced, Director of England Women's <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/photo/womens-t20-world-cup-2024-team-indias-schedule-101940/1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Cricket</a> Jonathan Finch said as quoted by ICC, "Following a busy period we are looking forward to finishing off our summer with the tour to Ireland."
"The squad has an exciting mix of experienced international players, those that are returning to a squad having played previously and those yet to take their first steps on the international stage. This is a strong squad made up of many players that have grown from being part of a strengthening domestic game," Finch added.
"Ireland Women are coming off the back of a significant series win against Sri Lanka and this, mixed with playing away from home, will pose a significant challenge. It's always a special moment to see players make their debut and seven could do so on this tour," the director concluded.
