A batting allrounder with a reputation for rapid scoring, Andrew White has been an important member of Ireland's squad for the last few years. White made a name for himself with an unbeaten 152 against Netherlands on first class debut and, in his first one-day international two years later, helped Ireland's pride with a quickfire 40 in a defeat to England. He has an important role to play as an increasingly mature floating member of the middle order, batting between No. 4 and No. 7, and can also chip in with some handy offspin.
Strengths
White has shown the ability - vital for a middle-order batsman - of being able to adapt to the situation, and is capable of both competent attack and defence.
Key stats
World Cup tracker
White was part of Ireland's Under-19 side for the youth World Cup in 1999-00, and seven years later played in eight of Ireland's nine World Cup matches in 2007 but finished with a top-score of just 38.
Expert view
"Andy has the most caps in the squad and has a lot of experience of playing on the big stage. Known in the one day form as a good 'finisher' who tends to score in unorthodox areas, he is arriving at the World Cup on the back of his best season in international cricket to date. He is also a more than useful one day bowler, with his off spinners likely to give Ireland useful options."- Kyle McCallan, former Ireland allrounder
