All-rounder
George Dockrell
George Dockrell is a stable middle-order batter and can also contribute with the ball. Dockrell will be a good pick from the all-rounders section.
Bowler
Mark Adair

ENG vs IRE match captain and vice-captain choices
Joe Root
Joe Root will be the key for English batting as he has been over the years. Against a relatively weaker bowling attack of Ireland, there are chances that Root will score big.
Harry Brook
The young English batter had a good time in Test cricket prior to the IPL 2023. But Harry Brook failed to impress in the mega T20 league and will be looking to regain form very quickly in this format and play an effective role for England.
