Ireland endured a tough opening day to their one-off test with England at Lord’s. Stuart Broad took five wickets as Ireland were bowled out for a first innings total of just 172.
Broad scored fifties and played true to the aggressive ‘Bazball’ style that has taken the nation by storm since Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum took over the red-ball team last summer.
England finished the opening day of this one-off Test on 151 for one and only 20 runs behind Ireland, who were dismissed for 172 at the start of the evening session thanks to Stuart Broad’s first five-wicket haul at Lord’s in 10 years.
