4.27pm So, Ireland have been bowled out for a mere 172 after being sent in. Broad starred with a five-for, Leach picked up three, and Potts finished with two. Debutant Tongue was impressive as well but will have to wait for his first Test scalp. And it's time for some Bazball now, I guess. Can England go past Ireland's total tonight?

Potts to Hand, OUT, a neat take by Bairstow behind the stumps and Ireland's innings to come an end. A length ball that nipped back in to take the inside edge as the batter looked to push at it. Bairstow tumbles to his left to pouch it with both hands
