ENG vs IRE LIVE: Debutant Josh Tongue bamboozled the Irish batting line-up with three quick wickets in the 2nd Innings. However, Harry Tector and Lorcan Tucker stood tall for the visitors as they inched closer to the 100-run mark after Day 2. However, an uphill task awaits Ireland as they are still trailing by 255 runs. To add more misery, opener James McCollum who played so well in the first innings has got injured and left the field. It remains unsure if he will bat or not tomorrow. Earlier, England posted a mammoth total of 524 runs as they declared in their first innings. The highlights of the innings was excellent century from Ben Duckett and a double hundred from Ollie Pope. Joe Root also stroked a quickfire fifty as England took a lead of 352 runs after first innings.
