Andrew Balbirnie on inter-pro revamp: ‘It may entice a young lad from Limerick to come and watch’

Leinster Lightning have won 16 out of the 20 competitions since the inter-pro series was born in 2013

Ireland cricket captain Andrew Balbirnie backs the revamp of the domestic game.

Ireland cricket captain Andrew Balbirnie believes a revamp of the top domestic competitions in the country, which will see international players spread out more evenly across the provinces, will have positive knock-on effects for the sport in Munster.

While the move means the number of local players lining out for the Munster Reds will be limited this summer, some of the country’s top players lining out for the province could inspire the next generation.
