Really looking forward to this tour. We are in for an unmericful thrashing in the Test, but just the thought og us playing 4 Tests in 3 months after no FC cricket for 5 years gets me excited, can't wait to follow it.
It's a shame we#ve so many injuries, Little and McCarthy is a big blow, but Young is back at least.
I'd be hopeful we can be competitive in a few of the games, but given the inexperience in Bangladesh I'd not be surprised if tomorrow's game is a bit of a hameering, we tend to take our time in acclimatising.
Keep an eye on Humprey's. Irish spinners are always incrediblt raw and udnercooked due to the lack of bowling time/facilities they get (case in point, Ben White), but Humprhey's seems to be exciting a few and he did brilliantly for the U19's, really looking forward to seeing him (albeit, he probably won't play the first couple games).
