Highest score
Somerset spinner Jack Leach scored a remarkable 92 in his fifth Test, defying his career average, boosting England’s hopes of beating Ireland at Lord’s.
With England 122 runs behind after the first innings, Leach, 28, forged a great partnership with Surrey’s Jason Roy, opening the batting on Wednesday evening as a nightwatchman.
Taunton-born Leach, whose previous highest first-class score was 66, became the fifth nightwatchman to score in Test cricket in the 90s.
The left-handed batsman was dismissed by Middlesex fast bowler Tim Murtagh for just eight runs short of his century.
Glasses
It’s rare a game moment shakes you up. Last Sunday, when Ben Stokes was taking Australia to all parts of Headingley, I was looking at my phone in a park. I realized I had lost control of my body when Jack Leach failed to cleanly collect the ball while driving through No Man’s Land. Screens were everywhere.
It may have happened before — but I’m rarely holding both sides of my TV in those crucial moments. My panic scream was too loud for the sunbathers. I think everyone thought I was that weird guy in the park on the bench. There is always one.

The interpretation of Leach becoming an instant cult hero is very correct. “It’s probably because I look like a village cricketer in my glasses, bald head and maybe people think: ‘That could be me!’ All the others look very professional.”
