Why wasn't he picked in the original squad?
Because he isn't very good at international level. Can't play a fast ball.

Was an interesting interview actually. Said he wants Test cricket for Ireland but not yet, but that he feels you should be able to obtain full ICC membership without having Test status.
metginks without full member5ship there is no way a country can sustain a test class team. In fact there's one or two Full member's struggling to pull it off.

Well, this is his first 20/20 international, apparently....

And based on this innings, he clearly deserves a run!

Interesting enough, he was the leading run scorer in the NZ T20 comp.. Buy yeah, as Athlai said, he hasn't offered much an international level so they went with younger options, and lots of all-rounders.

True, but how many batsmen have hit a 23-ball half-century against them?

Redmond was unfortunate to be given out off that ball....

Well this their third match against a full member, the last two group matches were 1 and 2. One of them being Bangladesh.

Heck James Marshall scored runs against the Irish...
