In Ireland's 100 Cricket Greats, Gerard Siggins and James Fitzgerald explore the stories of the top players to play for Ireland, bringing life to the long history of the game in the country and recounting some fascinating tales.

Recent stars such as Ed Joyce, Jeremy Bray, Niall O'Brien, Trent Johnston and Eoin Morgan are joined by greats of the past such as Alec O'Riordan, Jimmy Boucher and Dermott Monteith.

These greats are joined by such as the former captain who was killed in the 1916 Rising, the baronet who picked a fight with WG Grace and the batsman who drowned off Taiwan after playing for Hong Kong.
