21st over: England 69-9 (Stone 3, Leach 1) If England are bowled out before lunch it’ll be the fourth time they’ve been dismissed in a session in a year – Dakar, Auckland and Trent Bridge are already on the roll of honour, with Bridgetown hosting a piddling nine wickets. Leach shoves a single into the leg side, then Stone eases behind for one.
And there’s that short leg! Curran leans forward and turns directly into his hands which reminds us of how brilliantly Ireland have executed this morning. My fingers are typing but my head is spinning; this is amazing.
