    Ex-England bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    That's not the best fielding from Lauren Filer, almost a bit lazy. She looks disappointed and I am glad she does.

  2. Ire 93-1

    Charlie Dean purposefully hands her cap to the umpire.

    The England skipper tosses up her second delivery and Amy Hunter miscues a pull but straight into the ground.

    Hunter swivels and drags a pull down through fine leg and Ireland run three - assisted by some bang average fielding from Lauren Filer - before she edges a straight one for four.

  3. Ire 84-1

    Tilly Corteen-Coleman continues after drinks.

    Amy Hunter attempts to reverse sweep her fourth delivery - but fails to make contact this time.

    Hunter picks up two with a cut off the back foot from the next ball then drags the final ball into the leg side to keep the strike.

  4. Ireland 80-1 at drinks

    Charlie Dean brings herself on and immediately tightens things up.

    Amy Hunter sees off five dots before working one into the leg side for a single.

    Drinks.

    Good to see all the different cricket grounds England are using for this series, rather than big five, we have got so many great unused ground in this country.

  6. Ire 79-1

    Tilly Corteen-Coleman pushes one through with the arm but it's smartly played by Amy Hunter who jabs it into the pitch.

    Six runs off the 19-year-old left-arm spinner's fourth over.

  7. Ffion Wynne
    BBC Sport cricket writer on BBC Radio Sports Extra

    It has been impressive how proactive Ireland have been.

  8. Ire 73-1

    Dani Gibson continues. The pitch looks flat as a pancake now.

    Amy Hunter is unbeaten on 25 off 36 balls while Gaby Lewis is 29 not out off 40 deliveries.

    Penny for the thoughts of Charlie Dean on the toss...

  9. Rufus Bullough
    CricViz analyst

    This is the 12th time in ODIs that Lewis and Hunter have passed 50 as a pair, the most in Ireland's women's ODI history. From their 25 times batting together, they average 50.60 as a pair, the highest in Irish history for any of the pairs to have batted 10 times or more.

  10. Ire 69-1

    Tilly Corteen-Coleman's three overs have cost 20 runs so far.

    Gaby Lewis and Amy Hunter content to knock her into the gaps.

    England have taken just the one wicket so far today.

  11. How's stat?!

    Phil Long
    BBC Test Match Special statistician

    Gaby Lewis has just become the first Irish woman to reach 2,000 runs in ODIs.

  12. Ire 65-1

    Dani Gibson bustles into the crease, looking to stay wicket to wicket.

    Three runs off the over.

    Charlotte Edwards looks pensive hunched forward on the England balcony.

  13. Daniel Norcross
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    It's a quick outfield. Gaby Lewis got that through where a second slip would be.

  14. Ire 62-1

    Gaby Lewis is brimming with confidence as Ireland continue to take the game to England at Grace Road.

    She reverse sweeps Tilly Corteen-Coleman for four...again.

  15. How's stat?!

    Rufus Bullough
    CricViz analyst

    Just 7% of the deliveries by England's seam bowlers would have hit the stumps in the powerplay today - their lowest figure in 30 matches for England.

  16. Ire 55-1

    A double change as Dani Gibson is tossed the ball by Charlie Dean.

    Amy Lewis clinically pulls her third delivery through mid-wicket for four.

    Ireland ticking along nicely here.

  17. Kirstie Gordon
    Scotland and former England spinner on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Gaby Lewis is just settling herself in. She is making the most of partnership batting. Ireland will be happy with their overall score.

  18. Ire 51-1

    Impressive stuff from Amy Hunter.

    Two balls later she laps a deft flick off Tilly Corteen-Coleman through fine leg for four.

    TCC comes back with three dots.

  19. Kirstie Gordon
    Scotland and former England spinner on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Love that from Gaby Lewis. She has put the pressure on young Tilly Corteen-Coleman straight away.

  20. Ire 46-1

    Tilly Corteen-Coleman into the attack and Amy Lewis shows her intent by reverse sweeping the England spinner's first delivery for four!
