England Tour of Ireland 2013: Players to Watch for Much-Changed Tourists

England play a one-day international at Malahide in Dublin on Tuesday with a relatively untested side captained by Boyd Rankin.

Rankin, who has formerly represented Ireland at senior level, will be joined by fellow Irishman Eoin Morgan in the England party for the encounter.

With a vastly changed lineup from the sides that took on Australia in the Test series and Twenty20 internationals of late, there will be plenty of interesting names for fans and selectors to keep an eye on.

Who, then, has the potential to come to the fore?

Michael Carberry (Hampshire)

Hampshire opener Michael Carberry can perhaps feel pretty hard done by to have just one international appearance to his name after many years of impressive showings at county level.

Carberry's sole appearance came in a Test against Bangladesh in 2010, but having established himself as one of the country's leading limited-overs batsmen domestically, he has earned a recall in the shorter form of the game.

A left-handed batsman, Carberry can score quickly and prolifically, as his impressive record in the 20-over format shoes. While scoring quickly he remains orthodox in his technique but possesses awesome power when he goes for bigger shots.

A recent Twenty20 hundred against Lancashire was a real highlight.

Ben Stokes (Durham)

New Zealand born all-rounder Ben Stokes is highly rated within the England setup, but really needs an impressive performance to make up for a low-scoring start to his international career.

Stokes' international debut came against Ireland in 2011, when he scored just three runs. He will be hopeful, though, of improving his return this time around, with two more years of experience under his belt.

The Durham star comes into the encounter in good form, having scored a century just last week to end a recent drought. With the ball, though, he has been a consistent performer for a while, including impressing against Australia for England A earlier this summer.

With England looking for a new all-rounder at test level, the Ireland ODI will provide an opportunity to impress ahead of the winter's Ashes series.

Jos Buttler (Somerset)

Another player with much to prove to selectors is wicket keeper-batsman Jos Buttler, who has failed to make the most of his international opportunities thus far.

Buttler, though, scored a lightening-fast 47 against New Zealand in just 16 balls earlier this summer, giving an indication of his true potential and earning a place on the tour to Ireland.

At just 22 and with a good record at county level, it is easy to see why Buttler is a favourite of the England selection panel. At some point, though, he must justify their faith.

Ahead of a long winter in Australia, he simply must perform at Malahide if he hopes to travel with the side. At the moment, he would seem likely to earn a place, but a poor performance on Tuesday would only add to existing doubts.
