Ireland have named a 14-man squad for their first Test match against England at Lord's.

The historic four-day Test between the two countries takes place from July 24-27.

William Porterfield skippers a side that includes experienced county cricket performers Tim Murtagh, Kevin O'Brien, Boyd Rankin and Gary Wilson.

"The historic nature of this Test match will not be lost on anyone, however, the players will not be overawed by the occasion," said Ireland chair of national men's selectors Andrew White.

"I think we demonstrated the fight and talent we possess in the recent ODI against England at Malahide, and I expect the players will look to be just as competitive in the Test arena.

"We have stated all along that as selectors we are looking for players not only in form but displaying consistent performances, and I believe we have selected a squad that reflects this.

"It's also a squad that balances experience and emerging talent, which is necessary in looking to the future in this format of the game.

"This may only be our third Test, but we have 11 more to play over the next three years and our two Tests to date have shown glimpses of the potential we possess."

Graham Ford's squad will prepare for Lord's by playing a two-day game against Middlesex second XI from July 18-19.

Ireland squad: William Porterfield (captain), Mark Adair, Andrew Balbirnie, Andrew McBrine, James McCollum, Tim Murtagh, Kevin O'Brien, Boyd Rankin, Simi Singh, Paul Stirling, Stuart Thompson, Lorcan Tucker, Gary Wilson, Craig Young.
