Cricket Ireland chief executive Warren Deutrom hails the Irish government's decision to grant approval to develop a national cricket stadium.
Cricket Ireland chief executive Warren Deutrom said the announcement showed that the Irish government "genuinely regards us as a sport of national significance worthy of major investment"Cricket Ireland chief executive Warren Deutrom has described the Irish government's decision to grant approval to develop a national cricket stadium as "up there in terms of significance with the day we became a full member of the ICC".
Planning and design will be completed by mid-2025 with the tender phase to follow for the National Cricket Stadium and High Performance Centre, which will be located in the National Sports Campus in Blanchardstown. "These facilities will help drive the sport forward – they will significantly assist our highest performing players nationally and provincially to prepare, train and perform better on the world stage."
"It's going to take time to get there - likely three, maybe even four years, until we begin to use it, but today’s announcement fires the starting pistol on the project," Deutrom added.
