RSA Challenge Attracting Big Numbers
The RSA Challenge game between Ireland and England is expected to be a sellout.
The game, which will take place on the 3rd of September, is almost certain to fill the newly renovated Malahide stadium.
With a capacity of ten thousand people once completed, a full house w
ould mean the largest crowd ever assembled to watch a cricket game in Ireland.
Ahead of the contest, Irish internationals Kevin O'Brien, John Mooney and Max Sorensen headed to Malahide to check out Ireland's new international cricket stadium in all of it's glory.
Inpho were on hand as well, to take some pictures of the guys enjoying their time spent in the new arena for Irish cricket as it moves into a new and exciting age. All images from the day can be viewed on Inpho's website.
Fresh from their Ashes victory over Australia, England will be without some of their more established players, but will still be sending a nice blend of experience and youth to face Ireland.
Dublin born Eoin Morgan will captain the English side against Ireland. Morgan has previously played for Ireland at the 2007 Cricket World Cup, which was held in the West Indies. He has been a member of the English cricket team since 2009.
Tickets for the much anticipated clash are still available, with more information on how to purchase on the Cricket Ireland website.
