    30 overs England 136-2 Morgan scoring at a good rate but Trott thinks it is a Test Match.

    From the BBC: "We're going to start at 5.20pm apparently. Ireland target 129 from 23 overs. That means 87 off 10.".

    This Duckworth Lewis thing is mad but at least there will be a result.

    Well bowled. Difficult to defend a small target from a few overs but taking regular wickets kept England on top.

    You bowled well, wasn't impressed by England's batting display although I gather that pitch wasn't easy to bat on.
    Thought our bowlers demonstrated the kind of skills they've picked up playing so many tight 20-20 county games.

    Never does well for England, shame Taylor and Stokes failed but they'll get more chances.
