Debutant fast bowler Josh Tongue marked his call-up into the Ashes squad with a five-wicket haul as England beat Ireland by 10 wickets inside three days at Lord's but only after a record partnership of 163 between tailenders Mark Adair and Andy McBrine. England were well-placed for an innings win when Ireland started the day needing 255 more runs to make Ben Stokes's men bat again.
