Cricket World Cup: Ireland men's cricket head coach Heinrich Malan has secured a two-year contract extension, extending his role until mid-2027. Malan initially joined as head coach in January 2022 on a three-year deal, starting his work in March of that year. The extension aligns with Ireland's strategic focus on qualifying for the 2027 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, to be hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

Reflecting on his extended contract, Malan, 43, expressed his satisfaction, stating that the additional time will allow the squad and coaching staff to solidify the progress made over the past two years.

He emphasised the importance of developing a sustainable structure to enhance performance across all three formats of the game, despite Ireland’s relatively smaller talent pool.
