A Leinster Rugby XI look set to face a Malahide CC President’s XI in a 20-20 cricket challenge match on Friday week, 19th May in Malahide Cricket Club.
Leinster look set to call on an impressive array of talent against the 2002 All-Ireland champions which could include the likes of Ireland scrum-half Guy Easterby and England international prop Will Green.
Also expected to be named in next week's squad is Leinster’s Brian O'Riordan - who was capped for both Leinster and Ireland at underage levels and whose father Alec was one of Ireland's greatest ever cricketers.
Other players and members of the backroom team will also be included.
The Leinster side will be captained by former Ireland and current Leinster assistant coach Gerry Murphy. There will be music, a BBQ and a collection and post-match raffle will be made on the day to the 'Welcome Home' Charity supporting Fr. Peter McVerry who works with young homeless people in Dublin.
Play is scheduled to start at 6pm.
