David Willey and Sam Billings guided world champions England to a six-wicket win over Ireland at Southampton on Thursday in the first one-day global.
Joe Denly was a late withdrawal due to a lower back injury, with Kent team-mate Sam Billings filling in, while spin bowling all-rounder Liam Dawson and left-arm seamer Reece Topley were the others to miss out among England's squad. But Billings and captain Eoin Morgan (36 not out), a former Ireland worldwide, put on 96 for the fifth wicket to secure victory with 22.1 overs to spare.
The Super League will be used to determine the eight qualified teams for the next World Cup in India in 2023. The toss will take place at 6:00 PM IST.
Together with Andy McBrine (40) he shared a stand of 66 after Ireland were in danger of being dismissed for under 100 at 79-7. The visitors' innings was rescued by South African-born all-rounder Curtis Campher, 21, who was unbeaten on 59 on debut to go with 1-26 with the ball.
A fuller ball with a hint of in-swing was clipped to short midwicket by Paul Stirling, with Andy Balbirnie departing in Willey's next over, the Ireland captain's wild slash taking a faint nick en route to the wicketkeeper.

It will be NASA's first ocean splashdown in 45 years and the first piloted re-entry of a Crew Dragon capsule. The capsule will splash down in the ocean and a recovery team on boats will scoop up the crew and capsule.
Willey was already enjoying his comeback and his day took another turn for the better when Delany slapped to backward point before Lorcan Tucker was trapped lbw - overturned on review - off the next ball.
The 21-year-old former South Africa youth worldwide, qualified for Ireland through his mother, went on to an admirable 103-ball fifty.
In England's first home one-day global since being crowned world champions, Willey bowled with plenty of guile and was chiefly responsible for Ireland teetering to 28 for five in the seventh over.
The hosts will be without the likes of Joe Root, Jos Buttler, Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer as the big names recently played against West Indies and are now gearing up for the Test series against Pakistan starting next week.
David Willey opened the bowling for England in his first global appearance since making way in the World Cup squad for Jofra Archer and the left-arm seamer made a breakthrough within four balls. Whereas, for England, it will be an opportunity to try out new players in the absence of some of their ODI regulars who will be busy in fulfilling their red-ball assignments.
