    Jordan Cox looks like a man on a mission, even if it's not a moving mission.

    Minimum effort with maximum result at the moment.

    Target 155

    50 up for England off 33 balls.

    Jordan Cox punches Curtis Campher through point, with the ball beating the diving Ross Adair to the boundary.

    The next ball is on the hip and Cox whips that away too for his second six of the innings.

    The England number four takes a single off the final ball of the over to retain the strike, as the powerplay comes to an end.

    Four more.

    Jordan Cox leans into Craig Young's delivery and sends it through point with one hand off the bat.

    That's enormous, Jordan Cox should get 12 for that really. The ball has gone right over the stands. What an authoritive way to get off the mark, such a good cricket shot.

  7. 6 runs

    Eng 39-2published at 4.3 overs

    Tucked away casually for six!

    Craig Young's delivery is drifting down leg and Jordan Cox, facing his second ball, dismissively lifts it between two temporary stands at backward square and out of the ground.

    We've got a replacement ball, but spectators seem to be chatting with people outside the ground in an attempt to retrieve the original ball as a souvenir.

    Jacob Bethell got away with that on the last ball. The ball didn't quite come on, it's a fine catch diving forward from Gareth Delaney.

    It's a diving catch, brilliant catch! That was a super effort, England are down two wickets.

    This time he is caught at square leg!

    Having taken a single off that aerial shot, Jacob Bethell faces Craig Young and heaves his opening delivery out to Gareth Delany.

    The Irish fielder takes the catch diving forward.

    Target 155

    Back-to-back fours for Jacob Bethell as he tucks into Barry McCarthy..

    He pulls powerfully through midwicket then lashes through the covers off one foot.

    His final shot of the over is hit aerially and drops just short of square leg.

    It's noticeable that from Phil Salt, there's a slightly different gameplan. They're both looking to run and turn those ones into twos. But if the opportunity to hit it big comes, he'll be ready.

  14. Eng 23-1published at 3 overs

    The England captain picks up his first boundary, pulling seamer Craig Young square.

    Three deliveries later, the ball drops behind the wicket and Phil Salt hares down the track from the non-striker's end, despite Jacob Bethell's disagreement.

    Wicketkeeper Lorcan Tucker throws at the bowler's end as Bethell tries to reach his crease - had it struck the stumps the England number three would have been well short.

    Every save in the field is being applauded by the home fans here.

    Here's captain Jacob Bethell.

    The England number three gets off strike by running a leg bye, and Phil Salt adds a single off the bat, sending the ball square.

    It was a low full toss, bad ball but it gets the wicket. What a catch that was, it's the wicket that Ireland were hoping for.

    What a catch by Curtis Campher! Jos Buttler has gone for a duck, he can't believe it.

    It's clean!

    The back of Campher's fingers are touching the ground but the ball nestles perfectly in his grasp.

    Jos Buttler departs for a two-ball duck.

    Eng 10-0

    Well if he hasn't grounded that it's a superb catch.

    Jos Buttler drives Barry McCarthy's second ball into the covers and Curtis Campher dives to his right to take the ball one-handed just above the ground.

    The umpires will take a look.
