    If England can get another 30, that makes a huge difference in this game.

    The Ireland players are nervous. Everyone is saying Ireland could and should win - and that puts pressure back on the batsmen.

    This should blow over, although England's bowlers won't mind the clouds hanging around for most of the day.

    What is Joe Root doing, dancing down the wicket to Mark Adair? He was playing with so much control. In Test cricket, you don't need to do anything. He's too good a player to do this.

    William Porterfield on what an Ireland win would mean: "It would be pretty incredible, if that was to be the case, especially here at the home of cricket. A lot of things have to happen yet. I'm pretty sure every lad went to bed thinking about that."

    There was a moment during the World Cup where we had to vouch that Jimmy Anderson, England's all-time leading Test wicket-taker, was who he said he was, because his pass didn't work when he was trying to get into the ground one morning.

    This morning I was followed into the ground by Kumar Sangakkara, who still had to show his pass and have his bag searched, despite being the next MCC president.

    More from Jack Leach:"We've given ourselves a chance. We believe we can definitely win the game. The wicket is still doing bits. We've got to make the most of that.

    "There's a little bit there [for the spinners]. If we've got players trying to maybe take a few risks against us, we can put pressure on them and we'll come into the game, definitely."

  12. 'Ireland are a county attack'published at 10:45 British Summer Time 26 July 2019

    This Ireland attack is a county attack at best - a sixth- or seventh-placed team in the First Division at best.

    Ireland captain William Porterfield, speaking to Sky Sports: "We've got one wicket to take this morning. It'd be nice to keep them this side of 200 then go about it with the bat.

    "It's a pretty simple process - it was although last coupe of sessions yesterday but how we stuck at it was really good. Then we have to go out there and play, it's as simple as that."

    Jack Leach on his nightwatchman innings and his dad: "He was going to come today, but saw the weather forecast and said it would be too hot.

    "He doesn't have Sky, so I gave him the key to my house and I think he's been there watching it the whole time."

    And he joked: "I don't think it would have been a good place for him to be today. He could have died. I think it was best he stayed at home in the cool."

    You've got to assume the target will be sub-200.

    England should have enough - they should be able to put a bit of panic through the Irish dressing room. England will win the game, but we will have a nipper.

    Missed any of yesterday's action?

    Here's the highlights. Sadly it's not just three minutes of Jack Leach batting in his pink bandanna. We had to include other people as well.
