 Peter Bracken of Wasps has been added to the Ireland tour squad |
Wasps prop Peter Bracken has replaced the injured Simon Best in the Ireland squad for the tour of New Zealand and Australia in June. Ulster skipper Best broke an ankle while playing against Llanelli in the Celtic League last Friday night.
Bracken, who joined Wasps from Connacht last summer, will be hoping to add to his Ireland A and Under-21 honours.
The 28-year-old joins Isaac Boss and Bryan Young as the only uncapped members of the 30-strong touring party.
Ireland leave for New Zealand on Friday, 2 June and face two Tests against the All Blacks before completing their trip with a clash with Australia on Saturday, 24 June.
