England v Ireland, One Off Test

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Not sure why Ireland have Test status.

Absolute demolition from England. Still, you can only beat what's in front of you.

Because they won’t improve without playing better sides.

They played very well for 2 days

That pitch was shite like as was the majority of the World Cup wickets

I was on my way to Lords to see the afternoon session.

England were batting when i set off, by the time i got there it was all over.

Hard not to feel sorry for Ireland here. The one day conditions were good for batting was the day a tailender played the innings of his life yet they still managed to run through the rest of the batting, and now they have to face this

Fantastic from the English bowlers though, doing exactly what they need to do

England would have won even if Leach got a duck.

Shocking batting by us in the 1st innings but thankfully we got better as the match progressed.

Not sure about that though. If they were chasing 100 I’m not sure they’d have caved like they did

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Jack Leach's batting won England the test like.

Denly and Burns aren’t going to frighten the Aussies

They wouldn't frighten a village second team.

Burns looks absolutely shocking mind.
