Bloody hell. They're at it again.

Two early wickets for the Irish. Curran back in for Topley.

always... it's like watching Durham, except that England seem to come up with a way to win in the end

Early wickets not bothering Morgan...

Might they have been a little more circumspect were it not the third of a series they lead 2-0 , against Ireland rather than India or Australia ? Perhaps ; but in truth they do play in this manner very consistently - and it comes off more often than not.

At 114/3 after 17 they still look to be on for a very substantial score. Hope young Banton can turn his decent start into something of note.

First time Banton has made a score I think.

Vince continues to underwhelm at this level.

Morgan gets his century.

Wheels came off the Ireland wagon quite quickly despite their excellent start...

Terrific knock this from Morgan...and really glad to see Banton getting a score.

...Morgan gone now : but 106 in 84 ain't bad ...and he's left them on for a tidy total

At least he doesn't waste many balls ...

Might be glad they have Tom Curran back in the batting order today.

Especially now Billings has gone. 16 overs still to go and 3 wickets left. Hmmm

Hussain will be telling them off for not batting the overs out.

Strangely lopsided scorecard. Two players totally dominant and the rest falling in a heap.

Projected total has taken a haircut . These two settling for taking the runs on offer now ? Guess it would seem a bit silly to get bowled out for 260 with overs to spare , especially after being 200/3...

Willey's still scoring fast enough. Had a good series.

Between Willey and Campher for PoTS , I'd imagine. Depends what they do later today in their primary roles.

300 achieved. Unlikely to bat the fifty overs though with nine down now ? Four more overs ; though it really shouldn't matter...

They could have binary batted their way to fifty overs and scored fewer than they have.
