Ireland have included pace bowler Boyd Rankin in a full strength squad for their Intercontinental Cup match against Papua New Guinea in January.
Warwickshire player Rankin, 31, has switched back to Ireland from England.
The Irish top the table with maximum points from convincing wins in their matches against the UAE and Namibia.
"We've been trying hard to get Boyd back into the fold and it's given everyone an extra boost," said Ireland head coach John Bracewell.
"Boyd's return gives William [Porterfield, captain] plenty of options on the bowling front and it's good to have that wrapped up before Christmas."
