Ireland-born Morgan scored a century of his own as England set the visitors an imposing victory target of 329 at the Rose Bowl but he sat out the second innings because of a minor groin injury. He watched on from the boundary as Stirling, who was dropped on 95 and 139, and Ireland captain Andy Balbirnie (113) put on 214 for the second wicket to help the Irish overhaul the target for a second victory over England in 12 attempts. "Paul Stirling had a day out and he's the ability to do that," Morgan told reporters. Morgan briefly overlapped with Stirling in the Ireland set-up before switching allegiance but knows him better from their time as team mates at English county Middlesex. Andrew Balbirnie was effusive in his praise for opener Paul Stirling after a memorable win over England in Southampton #ENGvIRE https://t.co/ertrzoTEty pic.twitter.com/9U2yTRZKoO — Cricbuzz (@cricbuzz) August 5, 2020
