A great joy in Ireland's camp as they registered a historic win today. A good game of cricket from both sides ended up in Ireland's favour, and that's what Test cricket gives us. It is the captain, Balbirnie, who stood up and scored a valuable 58 not out to get his side over the line. Mark Adair is the Player of the Match.
