    3,000 ODI runs up for Bairstow, the second-fastest Englishman after Joe Root.

    Really hope that he gets the ton - I love watching him bat.

    He's gone now, one or two more and this could get interesting. Morgan and Billings will see them home easily though I'd imagine.

    Bairstow in that mode is frightening, unbelievable fast hands and hits it so hard.

    Morgan in now. It gets no easier, he averages 70 against Ireland.

    Well I seemed to have jinxed Morgan. Ali could take it away from them, but I remember watching that England Scotland game and Ali threw it away when in a commanding position.

    Moeen Ali gone now as well. Billings still there and some decent batting to come but door defiantly open.

    And that's how it turned out sadly :( No shame in defeat in the first 2 ODIs, lets try and get a few more on the board to defend on Tues!

    22/2, Morgan at the crease, we need to get him cheaply, and then we might be in this!

    Bowlers have done really well so far in this series considering their inexperience, as well as losing Barry McCarthy after only a few balls in the first ODI.

    If we can get Morgan, we are well in this, he alone can carry the game away from us :(

    As usual - can't understand why they persist with him.

    Shame that Morgan didn't get the double ton - it was there for him!

    I dislike Sam Billings purely for the reason that they call him Bilbo.

    Another one down, another quick couple of wickets here are we might restrict them to something we can chase down!

    7 English batsmen not making 20... yet England making 300 plus with ease. Mad stat.... too much to do for Ireland youd guess... if they had managed to restrict England to 290 thereabouts... game on but now ...
