"Bobby Moore, Bobby Moore running from the Den,
Bobby Moore, Bobby Moore he had *** with men,
Queer as they come,
He took it up the bum,
Bobby moore, Bobby Moore is no more".
Horrid little ditty sung by some Millwall homophobes to the tune of 'Robin Hood".

I'm not sure this counts as Proper Mannies Cricket, but technically it's the first test of the summer so here goes.
England v Ireland today at Lords. One off 4 day test, 98 overs in a day, very much has a weird experimental feel about it. In that vein, England are batting and Jason Roy's first test innings goes as well as you would expect and he's out for 5. Potential World Cup hangover might be avoided as the teams are vastly different. England should win easy, around 150 run victory i reckon.
England: Jason Roy, Rory Burns, Joe Denly, Joe Root (capt), Jonny Bairstow (wk), Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Sam Curran, Jack Leach, Stuart Broad, Olly Stone.
Ireland: William Porterfield (capt), Paul Stirling, Andy Balbirnie, James McCollum, Kevin O'Brien, Gary Wilson (wk), Mark Adair, Andy McBrine, Stuart Thompson, Boyd Rankin, Tim Murtagh.
27/1 after 7.4 overs

They have spent an awful lot of time and effort into getting the one day team to where they wanted. The test side has suffered as a result.
I wonder just how ready they are for the Aussies.

Ireland need 182 runs to win. 4th innings chases are always daunting and history suggests they will fall short. but tbh, as much as I want England to win the Ashes, I wouldn't mind Ireland winning this today. Gives encouragement to smaller cricketing nations such as ourselves to aim high.
Covers are coming off so play should begin shortly...
