Even more strangely, the visitors are home alone without you for 14 days before the match.
Welcome to Ireland's world. Those 7,520 kilometres separate Dublin, where Cricket Ireland are based, from Abu Dhabi, where their men's team played T20Is against South Africa on Friday and Sunday.
The furthest you could travel and still be in Ireland is from the northernmost point, Malin Head in County Donegal, to the southern tip, County Cork's Mizen Head: 644 kilometres.
Of course, Ireland were a long way from home in Abu Dhabi. But they were the designated home team. Why? Because they do not have a permanent ground in Ireland, which means they have to rent venues from clubs when they play in their country.
Consequently, and bizarrely, they spend less money journeying more than 11 times the length of their country to a vastly different place to play.
All of which was only made odder by the fact that the South Africans had, in the two weeks before Friday, played three ODIs against Afghanistan some 165 kilometres north-east along the Persian Gulf coast in Sharjah.
