England's squad announcement for the Ireland Test contained all manner of subplots... among them, the omission of Ben Foakes in favour of the returning Jonny Bairstow, and the desperate news of Jofra Archer's latest injury setback. Alan Gardner, Andrew Miller and Vithushan Ehantharajah digest the implications, both short- and long-term.
