The Belfast Wolves are scheduled to play their entire first season of the European T20 league away from home, with all fixtures taking place in Dublin and the Netherlands.

This arrangement means the franchise will not contest a single match in Belfast during its debut year, a situation that has drawn attention given the city's recent cricket activity.

Stormont hosted Ireland's Test match against New Zealand alongside one-day internationals against India and T20 encounters with Afghanistan earlier this summer.

The Wolves join five other teams in the league that are also playing their home games outside of their respective cities.

A representative expressed hope that circumstances might allow for a return to Belfast next year to support both the team and its players.

The decision reflects broader trends within the competition where several franchises lack on-site venues for their initial campaigns.

Organisers have not confirmed whether any changes will be made to the schedule before the season concludes.

Fans in Northern Ireland are currently following the Wolves' progress through television and digital platforms rather than attending live games.
