Episode Synopsis

By the time you read this England will have beaten Pakistan in a Test match for the ages. So why don't we rewind 5 days to another incredible victory.  The plucky minnows beating the World Champions. No this isn't a Jamie Vardy flick inspired England beating Germany 3-2 in a friendly in 2016 but  Ireland playing the English at their own game. Namely, letting a shedload of runs do the talking. Stirling and Balburnie secured Ireland's first ever win on English turf chasing down 328 with just one ball to spare. Cue jubilation from the Irish and a lot of 'fair play lads' going around on English cricket Twitter. Bertie and Max dissect the match and also where this sits psychologically for Ireland. 
England's 1.5s meanwhile had to stick the triple salchow and landing three matches in a row to stand any chance of avoiding being shunted out for the big guns from the Test side. At the start of a new proper one day cycle what does this mean for those squad players and where does the defeat sit for England in the grand scheme of things?
