England vs Ireland, Only Test, Ireland tour of England Only Test, 2019 - CommentaryENG vs IRE, Only Test, Ireland tour of England Only Test, 2019 - Commentary

tommy: I think England will win from here as Broad and Woakes are bowling well, and when they are replaced Ireland will face the pace of Stone.

GoodBloke: What an opportunity for Ireland to create history by winning their first Test and that too against England and that too at Lords - Home of Cricket.

Shagy: Contrary to orthodox methods, someone needs to play like Sehwag for Ireland, a quick 40 in such low scoring games can prove to be really vital.

Rajesh: England have an absolute gem of a player in Sam Curran who can play all formats. This is poor from the other seniors to put him under burden. This man is a X-factor and England has to nurture him. Any team would love to have him.

Keshore: Much like the India series, it's the lower order helping England claw their way back into this match. As it turned out, it was one of the big differences between the two sides during that tour. Let's see if that's the case here.

Shivaan: Anything close to or above 200 would be very tough to chase, being their first Test match plus there have been few successful chases in recent times. 'First Test only in England, they have played a couple before'

Kannan: This is the beauty of Test Cricket. You don't loose a game if you have one bad day. Always you get to redeem and correct your mistakes.

Harsha Bhogle: Afraid Ireland's Test match honeymoon is over. But it was such fun while it lasted.

Sivabalan S: REMEMBER! Jack Leach is the only Englishman, yet to be dismissed in this match.

Vikas: With the pitch easing out, Irish bowlers must dry up the runs so that the English batters commit a mistake to get out. It's a test match and that requires skills, courage and character of the highest order.

Abhijeet Kumar: How is the weather at Lord's? Is it still conducive for swing bowling this morning? 'The new ball is doing a bit, but not as much as yesterday'

Bijender: Excellent performance by Ireland so far. Hope they will keep it up today.

Avinash Soman: Kevin O Brien was phenomenal in their greatest ever ODI win against England. He should play another masterclass to get their greatest ever test win

Parth: Has Stone clocked 100 mph yet? I saw him reach close to 98mph -- No. He is still in the early 90s

Ankush: This is wonderful from Ireland! Ireland has looked the part in this test match for sure. Didn't catch all of the English innings, but was the pitch really that difficult to bat on in the morning, or is it just England being England? -- Typical first day wicket with something in it for the bowlers at the start.

Viswanath Kovuri: England underestimated Ireland big time and paying the price. They need a couple of quick wickets to put the pressure back on them.

Akshat: I still feel England are favourites to win this Test match despite them scoring so less. The technique and temperament of Irish players will be tested. An Ireland win will be the best result and I am also hoping for it as well but ruling out England this early might be a mistake.

Masi: Ireland batsmen must apply themselves and defend everything for the first 10 overs. Then automatically they will get loose balls to score 3 runs-per-over from there on.

Sanjeet: Wow, wow, wow... Ireland you beauty. This is why I love Test Cricket that it gives you an opportunity to showcase your talent regardless of your ranking.

CricMongo: Don't know why people don't see Roy as a Test Player just because he's naturally attacking. But so were Sehwag, Warner and McCullum. Turned out to be excellent Test players. Roy should be given a longer rope to prove himself at the Test level.

Glen McGopi tweet: Mark Adair's bowling action is Lit!

Shrinath Alur: Hope Roy doesn't do a Finch !! A very good white ball opener but poor Red ball returns.

Saish Kothawade tweet: Now that a chance is given to Jason Roy, he should be given a longer rope. Otherwise they have to go back to Jennings.

Taha haidery tweet: England will look to settle their opening combinations and look to test their batting line up before the big ashes summer!!

Vadivel: Pitch Report please... -- Looks like a good batting surface. There is a tinge of green which should hold it together. However, the Lord's slope should provide assistance to the bowlers.

Rajiv Saha: I would like to see some tough fight from Ireland, if they bowl well upfront, it should boost there confidence.

Shubham: It will be so pleasing to see the RED CHERRY in action again and that too at Lord's. Being candid, I will miss Anderson's bowling in this match.

Aayush: England have specialised bowlers for all formats of the game. Done with pace, swing on display today. What a squad!!
