DUBLIN, Ireland (AP) — The United States will host a top-tier cricket nation for the first time in December when Ireland visits for a multi-format white-ball series. Two Twenty20s and three one-day internationals will be staged at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium in Florida from Dec. 22. Three of the matches will be day-nighters. Ireland will depart on Dec. 31 for the Caribbean for a series against the West Indies. As part of the agreement for the series the U.S. will visit Ireland for matches across the next three years. Ireland became the 11th full member of the International Cricket Council when it was awarded test status in 2017.
