It is very egalitarian at Lords!
Their noses are too high in the air to notice the poor people!
They did loosen up a little as it was so hot they relaxed the jacket rule but they did still have to wear a tie!

Woakes record in England is 2nd to none, should be one of the first names on the sheet
Avgs 45 with the bat and 22 with the ball or something crazy like that
damn i had lays for 1.01 and 1.02 too.

his home ground

Good job England were not batting in these conditions.
only 182 to get for a famous win 
do come along again
do come along again
leach or woakes for MOTM ? should be leach really. england would have been completely sunk without him
as predicted on day 1 during all the carnage, an easy win for eng
P!ssed away half my England green backing Ireland on wickets hoping for at least one reasonable partnership.
Imagine how annoyed you'd be if you'd laid them at odds approaching 100-1 on the either or both of the first two days then had to bail out not far from evens,only to see them lose anyway as predicted?

I tell you what
England don't half get lucky with the weather!
They got lucky against India last year.

ireland lost the game after tea day 1. they needed to be batting a session on the roasting day 2. 200 lead and probably different story
Bowled out for 85 on the first morning and still win almost inside 2 days by 140 runs
And there was 2 rain breaks in that as well
We gave them a chance by playing god awful

Curran's brilliant cameo made a huge difference. Not only helped to get the lead to 181 but meant Ireland weren't batting in sunshine.
40-1 at the close chasing 150 and it may have been different (70 all out?!)

to be fair inj we did get the breaks with the weather
Ireland barring that calamity at the end put up a decent fight
Long way to go but they are babies to this game and will continue to improve, hope to see them competing against the likes of Bangladesh first though and then build their way up

Just when you think England's delusion and denial can't go deeper....
“I don’t like saying this but the wicket was substandard for a Test match,” Root, who made 2 and 32, said. “I thought it wasn’t even close to a fair contest between bat and ball throughout the whole game.”

A shameful comment.

A shameful comment.
Yes a substandard pitch where a number 11 batsman scored 92

I think you have to admit that Eng owe a lot of their wins to luck of all sorts,
the World Cup Stokes Boundary Fluke being a typical example.
Even the "Greatest Ever Ashes" series was won cos of a jammy umpire decision
on the last ball of the third(?) Test and throughout by the sheer fortune of
McGrath being out of action cos of a freak occurrence of stepping awkwardly on a ball.
They are more lovable than England lasses but that's not saying much to put it mildly.

That's what did it. McGrath stepping on a cricket ball and I ain't extracting the Michael!
England got the weather against India last year imho too

Absolutely spot on!

I have a growing dislike of this England test side.
I come from Medway. I kind of like brainless idiots because I grew up with them but fcek me as professional sportsmen they make good athlete's. Thank God you don't have to be in Mensa to be allowed to play cricket!
Starts at the top. Main man should get nailed to the cross with the batting coach to his right and the Chairman of Selectors to the left!
Old Testament!
