The North West Warriors have named their squad for this week's clashes with Leinster Lightning in Dublin.

They travel without two of their South African born players - Irish international Graham Hume and Brigade professional Marcello Piedt - who have been unable to get the necessary visa paperwork in time for the games.

This follows on from last week when Northern Knights duo Tyron Koen and Ruhan Pretorius weren't able to play in their two matches in Munster.

Will this lead to problems next season for club sides in the Irish Senior, National and All-Ireland T20 cups? Watch this space I guess.

South African born players who are able to travel include Kian Hilton and his Cliftonville Academy team-mate Jared Wilson. Hilton takes the gloves for the T20 match in the absence of Stephen Doheny who was suspended for last week's abandoned 50-over clash with the Knights, but the Merrion opener is back for the 50 overs game.

Donemana's Irish Australian pace bowler David O'Sullivan is in line for a debut, while Bready paceman Conor Olphert is hopeful of being included in the T20 line-up.

The rest of the squad is the usual suspects, as the Warriors look to move off the bottom of the 50-overs table.

The T20 on Wednesday at Sydney Parade starts at 3.30pm with the 50-overs game on Thursday begins at the same venue at 10:45am.
