    England are clattered and shattered and all out for 85.

    This is not a dream! It's Irish delight!

    Tim Murtagh leads the Ireland team off to a standing ovation from the Lord's crowd. He'll be on the honours board tonight with figures of 5-13. Brilliant to watch.

    And that is that.

    England are bowled out for 85 before lunch. My, my word.

    Hello! Four!

    Olly Stone smashes a boundary square of the wicket for his fourth four of the innings. I hope they're watching in the dressing room...

    Ten minutes until lunch.

    Can England make it there? Mark Adair is coming back on.

    Tim Murtagh should get back on to finish off this innings.

  10. Eng 81-9published at 23 overs

    Short from Boyd Rankin and Jack Leach flaps a pull at it, but he ends up swishing at fresh air as Gary Wilson takes a terrific head-high grab.

    Rankin whistles a beauty through Leach's defences to end the over.

    Olly Stone has driven that mercilessly for four. Compared to the rest of England he looks like Wally Hammond right now.

    To be fair to England, I'm also trying my hardest to make sure I don't have to work in tomorrow's heat.

    This is an embarrassment. No other word can describe what we've seen.

    Four more!

    Olly Stone frees his arms and crashes a drive through cover. Lovely stuff.

    My wife is Irish. She's been trying to ring me for half an hour now but I'm not answering and it's staying that way.

    A reminder that England won the toss and opted to bat first.

    Lovely from Olly Stone, going for a big drive and getting a thick outside edge down to the boundary. Oh, and now Stone goes down the ground for four more! Shot of the day, although I feel like that's not saying much.

    Maybe the extra pace will help England - they'll at least edge a few down to third man.

    It's good. Character building and all that.
