Liam Plunkett anyone?

That's me done for the day.

I'll hand you back to Jack Skelton to take you through the remainder of Ireland's chase.

Paul Stirling is causing Moeen Ali real headaches here. Does he take James Vince out of the attack? He's not done the job at all here.

Ireland are finding the boundary that they need in every over with ease at the moment. It's Paul Stirling this time as he clubs James Vince over Moeen Ali at mid-on for four more.

Andrew Balbirnie then picks up a couple to reach his half-century.

I can hear the unmistakable chirp of Jonny Bairstow from my balcony. He's reminding Paul Stirling there's still an awful long way to go.

This pitch is tailor-made for a player like Paul Stirling, especially with that short leg-side boundary.

"They still need 180, boys" chirps Jonny Bairstow behind the stumps.

Paul Stirling has been getting a lot of the attention with those five sixes that he's hit now but Andrew Balbirnie is up to 47 off 40 now. He played a gorgeous drive for four in that over from Adil Rashid.

Ireland are really up for this. Paul Stirling is leading the way.

Massive again from Paul Stirling.

It's a bit of a top edge and aeriel - in fact he flings his head up in the air once he's hit it in panic - but it's got enough legs to get over the square leg fence.

That's the hundred partnership between these two.

Paul Stirling should really put his foot down now against James Vince, who is a part-time bowler at best.

James Vince has actually shown pretty good control so far to be fair. He starts with a yorker that has to be well dug out by Paul Stirling.

Vince is like that annoying Paul Collingwood, who is coaching England in this series don't forget, type pace. He's hard to get away and is bowling stump to stump.

Good control again from Adil Rashid with just three singles coming off his fourth over.

Eoin Morgan, who is sat in the stands after feeling some tightness in his groin while batting earlier, looks worried.

Paul Stirling has taken a liking to Adil Rashid...

That's a stroke of fortune for Ireland and Andrew Balbirnie as his short-arm jab takes the top edge but it loops over the keeper and away for four.

I was typing that it was a tidy start from James Vince after that, as he beats the outside edge of Balbirnie before getting a bit of in-movement but his final delivery is tickled fine for four more.

Golden arm James Vince!

Paul, who I think was joking when he texted in, has got his wish. James Vince is into the attack...

Adil Rashid's googly, which has been really troubling the Ireland batsmen throughout the series, doesn't seem to be as effective today on this pitch.

And Ireland have come up with better way to play it.

A bit of control, finally, for England as Adil Rashid rattles through a maiden.

There's more sloppy keeping in there from Jonny Bairstow, though.

In case you don't know what Paul is referring too, James Vince took his first international wicket in the second ODI on Saturday.
