Ireland Cricket appoints former international Ed Joyce as its High Performance batting coach. His role focuses on improving batting for the men’s senior squad and strengthening the country’s male talent pathway.
Both outlets report that Joyce’s duties extend beyond the senior team. He is also expected to work with players in the men’s development pipeline, helping create continuity between junior talent and the national setup. BBC Sport and ESPN Cricinfo both describe the appointment as part of Cricket Ireland’s wider high-performance plan, with Joyce brought in for his experience as a former international batter.
While neither source details contract length or specific programme targets, the common points are that Joyce is joining Cricket Ireland in a high-performance coaching capacity and that his coaching responsibilities cover both current senior players and future talent development for the men’s game.
