Inn Break
So that is it from this game! It ended in a very one-sided manner but, trust me, it was one enjoyable game. In the end, the team which everybody thought would come out on top, did. England now will turn their attention to the all-important Ashes. There are still a few days to go for it though. For now, you can switch tabs and catch all the action from the ODI between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Let me remind you, it is Malinga's last ODI so you do not want to miss it. Until next time, goodbye and take care!
Jack Leach has been awarded the MAN OF THE MATCH AWARD for his excellent 92 in England's second innings. He was the top scorer of the game and to add to that, he is not even a regular batsman.
It was quite obvious that England were going to put in a better effort with the bat than they did in the first innings. However, the batter who top scored for them was a surprise as it was the nightwatchman Jack Leach. Roy too had a good outing in his second Test innings. When the two were batting, it seemed like they would bat Ireland out of the game but the tourists did really well to fight back and enter the 4th innings on level terms. However, the conditions were one which a bowler would love and England made complete use of it and won the game by a whopping 143 runs.
Ireland though will be very disappointed with how this Test match ended having started it off in the best of manners. After being asked to bowl, they toppled England out for just 85. Tim Murtagh was the star as he finished with a fifer. England however, did not let the visitors run away with the game as a combined bowling effort by them only let Ireland take a lead of 122.
WOW! That escalated quickly! England have blown away the Ireland batting line-up in just the 15.4 overs. This Test match started with one team being bowled out in one session and has ended that way too. Yes, this was going to be a tough chase but not many would have thought England would win so easily. Just the two bowlers were needed for them. Woakes and Broad. The former took a six-fer and the latter, a four-fer.

Chris Woakes To Tim Murtagh OUT!

Chris Woakes To Stuart Thompson OUT!
OUT! Caught! 5-fer for Woakes and he goes into the honors board at the Home of Cricket. It is pitched on off and the ball goes with the angle, Thompson goes chasing after it with his drive. He gets nothing but a fat outside edge. The ball goes to the right of Root. The English Test skipper moves to that side swiftly and takes his 3rd catch of the game. Woakes takes the ball, raises it up and soaks in all the applause. He now technically becomes the first Englishman to take a 5-fer against Ireland.

Stuart Broad To Mark Adair OUT!
OUT! Cleaned 'Em! Broad has the last laugh. He serves three short balls and then goes full. It is around off and nips back in, Adair looks to drive but just like the previous batsmen before him he too leaves a big gap between bat and pad. The ball once again goes between that gap to disturb the off pole. England just 3 wickets away from a win here.

Stuart Broad To Mark Adair
SIX! One trick too many and Adair has gone blow for blow here. Broad dishes another short ball, Adair this time pulls it off the middle over the mid-wicket fence for a maximum.
We will have a slight delay and rightfully so. The physio will be out now to have a look at Adair's helmet. These blows are very dangerous and a slight delay is better than a permanent damage.

Stuart Broad To Kevin O'Brien OUT!
OUT! Ireland are falling like a pack of cards! Broad gets his second and probably Ireland's last hope, Kevin O'Brien is walking back. Stuart lands it on a length and around off, it jags back in sharply. Kevin O'Brien looks to play at it by staying rooted to his crease. He misses and the ball hits the pads. Broad is already celebrating as he starts appealing and the umpire raises the finger. Kevin O'Brien does not review and rightly so as Hawk Eye shows three reds. England just 4 wickets away now. Still just over 30 minutes to go in this session.

Chris Woakes To Gary Wilson OUT!
OUT! England manage to overturn the on field umpire's call. Half the side back in the hut for Ireland. Woakes bowls it full and this one comes in to the right-hander. Wilson is done for the pace and swing here. He looks to defend but misses. The ball hits him on his back pad and the English players put in a huge appeal. The umpire though does not agree with him. England players are pretty sure they have their man. Root signals the T. Replays roll in, Ultra Edge shows no involvement of the bat. Ball Tracker rolls in next and it shows three reds. The umpire will have to change his decision and Wilson too is out of here.
LBW appeal taken upstairs. Wilson is the man in question. He has not been given out. Let's see if England can overturn this decision.

Chris Woakes To James McCollum OUT!
OUT! Caught! Third wicket for Woakes! He was not getting much movement in the start but now he is making the ball do the talking here. It is on the channel of uncertainty, i.e. very close to the off pole. McCollum too falls for the trap and goes for a push. He ends up getting a thick outside edge. The ball flies to first slip. Root there takes it with relative ease.

Stuart Broad To Kevin O'Brien
Another bumper but this is outside off, Kevin ducks under it easily this time.
The physio is out to have a look. In the meantime, the umpires have called for DRINKS! All England after the rain interval. Early wickets was the call for the hour for them and they have got three. Ireland are in big trouble here. They need another 158 and they will have to bat really well to get that. They have Kevin O'Brien and McCollum who is looking solid out there but they need the two to continue. Will we see them fight back or will England continue to dominate?

Stuart Broad To Kevin O'Brien
Ouch! That is a nasty blow! Broad bends his back and bowls short. It is on middle and leg, Kevin looks to duck but is lat in it. The ball hits him flush on the back of his helmet. Broad has a word with him to check if he is fine. O'Brien gives a thumbs up to it but a mandatory helmet check will be done.

OUT! Bowled! Stirling goes for a duck. This is just world class from Woakes. The last ball was slightly short and moved away. This time he bowls it full and nips it back in. It is pitched around off and comes in, Stirling looks to play it straight but leaves a massive gap between bat and pad. The ball goes right through that gate and disturbs the stumps. Ireland have their back against the wall now. England needed early wickets they have got 3 here.

Stuart Broad To Andy Balbirnie OUT!
OUT! Caught! This is champion stuff from Broad. Bowls two short ones to Balbirnie and now bowls a brilliant good length ball. It is pitched on off and moves away. It is perfectly in the line of uncertainty. Balbirnie was in two minds, whether to leave or defend. He goes with the latter option and ends up getting a thick outside edge. It goes straight to Root at first slip who takes a very comfortable catch. Big wicket for England as Balbirnie was the best batter in the first innings.

Huge appeal for LBW but turned down by the umpire. Height seems to be an issue there. Good length ball pitching around off, it comes in after pitching. McCollum looks to defend but misses. The ball hits him on the thigh of his back leg. England players put in a big appeal but it is turned down by Aleem Dar. They think about the review but opt against it.

Chris Woakes To William Porterfield OUT!
OUT! Brilliant catch from Bairstow! Woakes corrects his line and pitches it on off and middle. Chris finally manages to move the ball off the deck. Porterfield looks to defend but the away movement sees the ball kiss his outside edge. It goes low to the left of Bairstow behind the stumps. Jonny dives to that side quickly and takes a good low catch. This is the thing with Woakes, if he gets a ball right it usually ends up being converted into a wicket. Ireland have lost their skipper early here. This Test match is evenly poised here.

Appeal for LBW but turned down by the umpire. Inswinging ball. It is bowled on a length. It pitches on off and comes in. McCollum looks to defend but gets beaten. The ball hits him over his knee roll. There is a huge appeal but the umpire is unmoved. Joe Root, Bairstow and Broad think about the review but don't take it.

Brilliant fielding! Saves for two for his side! This is fuller and around off, Porterfield hits it through covers. The fielder from point hares after it. He seems to have pushed it back in. The mid off fielder does the mopping up job. The batsmen take two but the umpire initially signals a boundary. They go upstairs to check and replays show that the fielder has done brilliantly.

Ireland are underway! Woakes goes very full and on the pads, there is no swing on offer for him. McCollum works it wide of mid on and takes three.
The players are back out there and it is time for some action now! The openers will resume their innings and Chris Woakes will continue his over.
Update - 1213 local - Good news folks! The rain has stopped, the covers are coming off and play is set to restart at 1230 local, weather permitting that is.
Not again please! The drizzles have got slightly heavier so the umpires have called for the covers and the players are out of the field. Also, more covers coming on, not a good sign this. The good news is the forecast is not that bad for the day so let's hope that it is not a big delay.

Another good ball. This is on a length outside off, this too comes back in. Porterfield once again leaves it alone.

Stuart Broad To William Porterfield
Excellent ball to begin with. Broad comes around the wicket and pitches it outside off. It comes in nicely with the angle. Porterfield though is aware of his off stump and leaves it alone.
