Investing in and developing young talent in Munster have been touted as a key part of Cricket Ireland's strategy as the sport's governing body announced a restructure to the Inter-Provincial Series.

Having been a part of the 20-over competition since 2017, the Munster Reds will now take part in the Inter-Provincial Cup, the 50-over tournament which also includes Leinster Lightning, Northern Knights and North-West Warriors, from 2021.
