[edit] Playing career

Harrison made his debut for Ireland against Denmark in July 1978[2] and made his first-class debut against Scotland the following month.[3] His next match was against FW Millett's XI in July 1979, scoring 74 not out in the Irish first innings, his highest score for Ireland. [2]

He continued that year with matches against the MCC, Wales and Worcestershire[2] in addition to a second, and final, first-class match against Scotland.[3] His international career then came to an end in 1980, playing against the MCC, twice against the West Indies before his final game against Middlesex at Lord's[2], a Gillette Cup match that was his only List A appearance.[4]

In all matches for Ireland, Harrison scored 265 runs at an average of 24.09. He scored two half-centuries.[2]
