round the wicket, hauled out through the leg side, and that's an extra too, so that is the end of that!

7.43pm Well, that wraps things up for the prologue to England's season. It's been a terrifically entertaining day. From Alan, Justin and myself, goodbye!
Eoin Morgan: "At certain stages we knew it would be challenging, but the bowlers did a great job, and three or four of us batted really poorly. But Foakes outstanding on debut, he and Curran got us over the line, last year against Scotland we got beaten at our own game, but today we found a way to win."
Man of Match is Ben Foakes "Nipping about a bit, had to take what was on offer. Because we kept them under 200, the rate never got away from us." Well, that was brief.
Will Porterfield "The start we got, was tricky in the morning, but we can't fault the fight with three debutants, didn't look out of place. The lads that played today have a bright future. Seven ODIs in next 15-20 days, great time for us."
7.34pm Tom: "Didn't we have basically the same result last time England played at Malahide? " Last but one visit had similarities ....
7.28pm Gosh, that was more of a thriller than we had bargained for when the pitch inspection was taking place some seven and a half hours ago. It's been a blazing contest, lit up by debutants galore. Ben Foakes and Josh Little share top billing, Jofra Archer attracts the scrutiny, and England head home for their Biggest Summer of Cricket Of All Time with more questions than answers ... though, in the form of Willey, Curran, Plunkett et al, mostly good ones, to be fair.

Robin: "To be fair England hasn't had a debutant wicketkeeper since Davies in 2009. Just off the top of my head Prior, Bairstow, Kieswetter, Buttler, Billings have probably all kept wicket just not on debut." Never let facts get in the way of a good stat

in the blockhole, flogged on the up, and the game is surely up now

Adair to Tom Curran, 2 runs
slapped uppishly, wide of the lumbering Boyd Rankin at mid-on, who gives away the second run

Adair to Foakes, 1 run
slower ball, Foakes waits well and opens the face to third man

Adair to Foakes, 2 runs
squeezed through third man... England are down to single figures
41.2
1
Adair to Tom Curran, 1 run
slashed on the up to deep cover, Curran in a rush to finish this, and dropped by Tucker, sprinting in! So near, he made the ground, but lost his composure, and maybe now, the match...

Adair to Tom Curran, FOUR runs
low full toss, smashed one bounce to the rope! That is a massive start to the over
Right, last roll of the dice. This needs to be the over, surely, to get the breakthrough

Little to Tom Curran, 1 run
up on the toes, bashed to deep cover, another single as England ... seemingly ... close in

•
Little to Tom Curran, no run
swish! A touch impetuous for a change, pulling when the ball wasn't quite there for the shot. Whistles past the off stump
Hypocaust: "Ben Foakes is the first English keeper to make a fifty on men's ODI debut" Well, well ...
40.3
1
Little to Foakes, 1 run
round the wicket now, a touch more cramped on the back foot, but worked into the on-side
Vanja Patrakar: ".... but can he do it in cold murky day in Dublin? Tom Curran ticking all boxes today."

too short, wide enough to have a slash with impunity, pulled forcefully in front of square

Ronak: "Hats off to Foakes but how good has his Surrey team-mate Tom Curran has been with the bat tonight? Sensible batting for the most part and seeing the bigger picture of not losing to Ireland." Surrey will be wondering where all this 50-over knowhow has been hiding all summer. They've been a shambles in the Royal London Cup

Adair to Foakes, 1 run
thumped on the up to long-on, another single as Foakes keeps the strike

Adair to Tom Curran, 1 run
eased into the off side. England are just beginning to assert their authority. Which means there has to be a twist, right?
39.4
1
Adair to Foakes, 1 run
tucks the single to add a fifty on ODI debut to his hundred on Test debut. He's a player alright
39.3
2
Adair to Foakes, 2 runs
overthrows! Driven, via the bowler's hand, to mid-off, whose shy is awry
George Macphers: "Andrew slogging can win you matches. " Well duh, it's the only way I've ever won any game. But I've also lost most of them by slogging too!

Adair to Tom Curran, 1 run

Little to Tom Curran, 1 run
back of a length, nudged to deep midwicket, just the single. That was a productive over for England. Ireland, if they didn't already know it, need wickets
