Well that was almost as gripping as the lawn bowling.

^Still got 2 in it that are within a few shots of Top-5, this tourney isn't a bust yet. Feel sorry for the people that piled on Rory @ 7.00, or Tiger or Phil or Jason Day or any of the others that normally go well in Majors at short odds who are all having this weekend off.
Hopefully they were Pomgolians

Fucking hell, England all out for 85 in test match against Ireland. Pretty close to Englands first choice 11 aswell..
Graham Thorpe has took over as batting coach from Ramprakash
Or is it Ian Thorpe?
England suffered the embarrassment of being bowled out for 85 by Ireland before fighting back on a day when 20 wickets fell at Lord's.
On the ground where they won the World Cup only 10 days ago and with just over a week before the Ashes begin, the long-standing deficiencies in England's batting were once again exposed.
Middlesex seamer Tim Murtagh, playing on his home ground, picked up 5-13 as England were bowled out before lunch after winning the toss.
At one stage, the home side lost six wickets for seven runs and gave up all 10 in a single session for the fourth time in three years.
When Ireland reached 132-2, thanks mainly to 55 from Andy Balbirnie, England were in danger of being out of the contest against an Ireland side playing only their third Test.
Specsavers Test, Lord's (day one of four) England 85 (Murtagh 5-13, Adair 3-32, Rankin 2-5) & 0-0 Ireland 207 (Balbirnie 55; Curran 3-28, Stone 3-29, Broad 3-52) England trail by 122 runs Scorecard

Just a Heads Up ...
There is a whole, dedicated thread to the special event of ASHES CRICKET
Here is the link to the last post on that thread ... https://teakdoor.com/the-sports-room/...ml#post3977142
... maybe continue the banter over there?
First degree Murtagh of England's pride by Ireland, na?
'groan'
England's lead, 70 for 3.
Worth a visit tomorrow.
lead of 117 with 3 wickets left - Root with brain fade. If Ireland win this then Wales need to get a team together.
No team has won from such a shit position for 112 years apparently.
That would really confuse the convicts.
Currans knock saved England as I'd have fancied Ireland to get 150 at most, can't see them scoring circa 200.
Heh.
182 needed.
Over to you, S. Broad.
38 all out, feel for ireland - that was ruthless in english conditions.
all over England win , never in doubt. Ireland all out for 38 the lowest test match total at lords.
Two tests against the Kiwis then off to Searth Ifricah for Crimbo.
Proof that Mitch Marsh really is an idiot. The only reason he and his brother keep getting picked is because of their dad..
Mitchell Marsh will miss the start of Australia's Test summer after punching a wall and breaking his bowling hand.
The incident occurred after the Western Australia all-rounder was dismissed in a Sheffield Shield match against Tasmania on Sunday.
Marsh said it was an "uncharacteristic" and "isolated" incident that would not happen again.
"Sometimes you get beaten, sometimes you get out, and you can't be punching walls," he said.
"It's a good lesson for me, hopefully it's a good lesson for other people as well."
