Junior McBrine

After being a regular member of the side throughout his first three years, his appearances for Ireland became more sporadic starting in 1988, when he played just once, against Wales. He played twice against Northamptonshire in 1989, before a three-year break from the Irish side, returning in June 1992 for a match against Middlesex. He also played his final first-class match against Scotland that year, along with a match against Durham. His final match for Ireland was against Leicestershire in the Benson & Hedges Cup.

In all matches for Ireland, McBrine scored 654 runs at an average of 22.55, with a top score of 102 against Scotland in July 1987, his only century for Ireland. He took 44 wickets at an average of 40.52, with best innings bowling figures of 4/38 against Matabeleland in January 1986.

A tour to Zimbabwe was the first port of call for McBrine in 1986, the home season starting with two matches each against India and Yorkshire. He also played against Wales, Leicestershire, the MCC and Scotland later that year. He played several matches the following year, including internationals against Pakistan, Scotland and Wales.

Junior McBrine made his debut for Ireland in June 1985, playing against Scotland in a first-class match. His second match, against Sussex in the NatWest Trophy, was his List A debut. He played four more times for Ireland that year, including a match against Australia and a match against the MCC at Lord's.
