@Tassotti, what’s the feeling over on the mainland about the Micks playing in a test match on the hallowed turf of Lord’s.
Joe Denly trapped lbw by Mark Adair. 36/2. England top three batting woes continue.
36/3. Rory Burns gone.
42/4
We are smashing em
42/6 after 13 overs.
Moeen Ali out for a duck. 5th wicket for Tim Murtagh. 43/7.
Bloody hell.
Wowzers😲
1st 5 for an Irishman in test cricket
Sensational. Tim Murtagh a worthy addition to the Lord’s honours board

Consecutive boundaries from Sam Curran to move England to 52/7.
What a start, Dessie Dolan, Rory Stories, Des Cahill and the boys seen bombing up the m50 to malahide

Nice comedown from the world cup.
England have been abject in test cricket under Baylis. This is continuing the trend of the last test series in the Caribbean.

The Aussies weren’t much better at the Aegas bowl yesterday.
The 8th wicket of partnership of 15 is broken as Boyd Rankin picks up the wicket of Stuart Broad. 58/8
WICKET! Broad c Wilson b Rankin 3 (England 58-8)
Rankin comes around and bangs one in back of a length; Broad lifts his bad above stump-height, feathers an edge, and the Irish backstop does the rest. This is basically Brexit in cricketing form.
Shane Ross has made it all possible.
