As Ed Joyce got fed up with Ireland and became an Englishman, can I become Irish?

Question

Only joking, I know he is playing for England so he can play test mtches abd play at the highest level, but I am a wannabe Irish supporter, they look like getting further than England!

And at this rate will be a test playing nation soon! lol

Imagine what they'd be doing with Joyce in the team....

And I have Irish heritage!

You have already become Irish by 'wanting' it. Being Irish is a state of mind. And now you can be Irish and play cricket! 'Ray! (including for England, good on Ed Joyce)
