Yes, you heard me right. Phil Salt was in tubthumping form once again with the bat, thrashing 89 off just 46 balls to give Jacob Bethell his first win as an England captain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">It\u2019s a sell out just outside Dublin today but unlike the glorious sunny skies above me in deepest Sussex I regret to inform you that it is raining at the moment in Malahide. The forecast isn\u2019t that tasty either if the radar is anything to go by.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The toss has been officially delayed and the umpires are due to inspect the pitch at 13.30pm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">I\u2019ll let you know as soon as we get any news.
