Allan Eastwood is an Irish cricketer. He made his international debut against The Netherlands on 11 August 2010 taking 4 wickets in the second innings.[1]

Background

Eastwood is from Roscrea in County Tipperary and began his cricketing career at Ballyeighan C.C. In his teens and early twenties he was a key member of the Ballyeighan side that won a Middle A Cup, Middle B Cup and numerous Midland and South East Cups. When Ballyeighan failed to gain promotion to senior ranks due to their lack of facilities Eastwood moved to Pembroke C.C. in Dublin.[2]

International career

After quickly establishing himself in Pembroke's first team Eastwood assumed the captaincy for the 2010 season. Impressing the Irish selectors[3] with his action, pace and athleticism he was selected for the Ireland A side to play against the MCC at College Park, Trinity College, Dublin, on 3 August 2010.[4] In that match he did enough to impress the watching Ireland coach Phil Simmons and was called into the first team for the game against The Netherlands the following week.[5] In addition to his four wickets in the second innings,[5] Eastwood opened his first class account taking the wicket of Eric Szwarczynski[6] in the first innings. He is the second man from Roscrea to play for Ireland, the other being Harry Read over a century ago.[7]
