Only ODI, Ireland v England ODI 2019, 3 May 2019

Hammered away through the legside and it's a no ball so that will be the match. Ben Foakes and Tom Curran guide England to victory but Ireland were in this game for a long time and can be proud of their efforts. They will rue the moment when they could have reviewed the Foakes LBW decision but decided against it, although England could still have got over the line. An excellent day's cricket in Malahide and a day that began with an outfield too wet for cricket ends with the ground bathed in sunshine.
