Dates 19 June – 2 July 2020
One Day International series
Twenty20 International series

The New Zealand cricket team were scheduled to tour Ireland in June and July 2020 to play three One Day International (ODI) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1] The ODI series would have formed part of the inaugural 2020–22 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[2][3] New Zealand were also scheduled to tour Scotland in the same month to play an ODI and T20I match.[4]

Initially, Cricket Ireland announced that Bready Cricket Club Ground would not be hosting any matches at the venue due to their financial position.[5] However, when Cricket Ireland confirmed the fixtures in December 2019,[6] the T20I matches were confirmed to be taking place at the ground.[7]

The COVID-19 pandemic put the tour in doubt.[8] In April 2020, David White, Chief Executive of New Zealand Cricket, said that the tour would be "most unlikely" to happen.[9] Later the same month, Cricket Ireland's Chief Executive, Warren Deutrom, stated that international cricket in Ireland during 2020 was at "high risk" due to the pandemic.[10][11] Deutrom later added that New Zealand's tour to Ireland was "fairly doubtful".[12] However, the tour was postponed on 15 May 2020 due to the pandemic.[13][14]
