    ^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.

    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

    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.

    That’s right, but unfortunately for England it is of course a day 3 strip rather than a day 5 one.

    Anyway, first session should be particularly interesting.

    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."
