A left-handed elegant batter played one Test, 78 ODIs and 18 T20Is from the period of 2006 to 2018. He played for England in the 2007 World Cup and then switched his country to play for Ireland in the 2011 World Cup.

Ed scored six centuries and 16 half centuries in his international career and is currently the head coach of the Ireland Women’s side. His brother Dom Joyce also played for Ireland in three ODIs in 2006 and 2007 as a right-handed top-order batter and they played against each other as opponents for different countries.
