The England cricket team toured Ireland in May 2019 to play a one-off One Day International (ODI) match.[1] The match took place ahead of Ireland's visit to England in July 2019, to play a one-off four-day Test match.[2][3] In September 2018, The Village in Malahide was named as the venue for the match.[4] The ODI fixture was part of England's preparation for the 2019 Cricket World Cup.[5] England won the one-off ODI match by four wickets.[6]

In addition to the provisional World Cup squad, Jofra Archer and Chris Jordan were named in England's squads for this match and the subsequent series against Pakistan, and were in contention for a place in the World Cup side depending on their performances.[7][8] England finalised their fifteen-man World Cup squad following the conclusion of the matches against Pakistan.[9][10]
