  1. Eng 4-0

    Target 11

    The first ball is pulled confidently away for four. Meat and drink for Zak Crawley.

  2. Mark Adair will open the bowling for Ireland.

    England will look to polish this off in a flash.

  3. Here is the final Ireland wicket to fall.

    Stumps. Bails. Everywhere.

  4. England opt against messing about with the openers. Here are Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett.

  5. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    We are questioning whether that bowling performance should concern England for when they face Australia, but I don't want to take anything away from Ireland.

    They batted brilliantly and I am delighted for them.

    Perhaps they were a bit sloppy, took their foot off the gas a little bit, but it's still been pretty comfortable. It is a very, very good pitch.

    If we get one like this for the Ashes, it's going to be difficult to take 20 wickets for both sides.

  6. Sir Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    I'm not sure this game has taught England anything they didn't know, other than a good look at Josh Tongue, but I wonder if they might change their minds about the wickets they get prepared!

  7. Want to see Josh Tongue's England Test debut five-fer? Of course you do.

    You're welcome.

  8. Sir Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    I would expect we'll see England's openers. I can't see Jonny Bairstow coming out for the sake of getting a bat when they only need 10.

    But what a great fight from Ireland today. You wouldn't have put money on them getting that this morning. They showed a lot of heart and they didn't really show that in the first innings so they have really showed us what they can do.

    That applause for Andy McBrine is wonderful. He is left stranded, but that was a great effort.

  10. There is a brilliant ovation for Andy McBrine as he makes his way off the field, ending unbeaten on 86.

    He is swiftly followed by Josh Tongue, who holds the ball to skies and salutes the crowd after his debut five-fer.

    After all that England need 10 to win.

    WICKET

    Hume b Broad 14 (Ire 362-9)

    That is very out.

    Stuart Broad pierces Graham Hume's defences and absolutely clatters into his stumps.

    Will we see James McCollum and his moon boot? No. That's it.

  12. James McCollum striding out in a moon boot would be a sight.

  13. Alison Mitchell
    Cricket commentator on BBC Test Match Special

    It does open up the question about substitutes in cricket, doesn't it? But I guess it would bring in a lot of 'tactical' injuries!

  14. Sir Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    If Andy McBrine is on 98 and Graham Hume gets out, what is James McCollum going to do?

  15. Ire 358-8

    Andy McBrine shows faith in number 11 Graham Hume by taking a single off the first ball of Matthew Potts' over.

    That faith is rewarded too as he sees off the rest of the over - before pinching the strike with a single off the last ball.

  16. We've all been there...

  17. Sir Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    I put the wrong headphones on and then forgot to turn them on.

    Great start.

  18. Here we go then. Andy McBrine, 15 away from a century, will face the first ball of the evening session.

    Matthew Potts has the ball in hand for England.

    Alex: Josh Tongue becomes the first Worcestershire pace bowler to take a test five fer for England since Graham Dilley in 1988. Dilley's wickets that day were Haynes, Greenidge, Richardson, Richards and Marshall. Not a bad collection!

  20. This is the moment Ireland moved into the lead thanks to back-to-back boundaries from number 11 Graham Hume.

    The Lord's crowd absolutely loved it.
