Dublin: Tickets for Ireland's match against Australia taking place in Dublin on June 17 next year are to go on sale on December 14 at 10 am.
It has been 16 years since the sides last met in Dublin and it will be only the second time the teams have met in a one-day international, with Australia winning the previous match, in the 2007 World Cup, by nine wickets.
William Porterfield, the Ireland captain, is looking forward to taking on the world champions and feels Ireland have improved since the teams last faced each other.
"Obviously it's going to be a fantastic occasion, not just for the team, but for all Irish supporters," he said. "We came close to shocking England in our last ODI in Belfast, and if we can up our game for the day, I'm sure we can run Australia close. We've played some super cricket over the past two to three years, claiming some huge scalps along the way.
"There have been times though when we've been in great positions and fallen at crucial moments after being on top for 80% of the game. If everyone plays to their full potential, who knows, we may have another day to remember. Having said that, they're a super side with players of the calibre of Ricky Ponting, Michael Clarke, Michael Hussey and Brett Lee, so we know it'll be difficult.
"The compact surroundings of Clontarf are sure to provide a wonderful atmosphere, and I'm sure the tickets will sell out quickly. Hopefully the weather Gods will be kind to us, and it should be a super day out for everyone."
Adult tickets will cost 40 Euros, while accompanied children under 16 can get in for 14 Euros. There are also family and club deals available as well as significant discounts for OAP's and school groups.
The match will be sponsored by Royal Sun Alliance (RSA) and Philip Smith, the RSA chief executive said they are looking forward to the game. "RSA are delighted to be the sponsor of this world class event. I'm sure both teams will rise to the occasion and do their countries proud".
