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]
