Stuart Broad says he is “addicted” to England’s brand of cricket after his five-wicket haul on an explosive first day of the Test summer at Lord’s.
Broad took three early wickets to reduce Ireland to 19-for-three inside the first half-hour and then added two more after lunch to register his 20th Test five-for as the visitors were bowled out for 172. In reply, England scored at more than a run-a-ball after tea to reach the close on 152/1, just 20 runs behind, with Ben Duckett unbeaten on 60.
