I sort of compare these games to the one dayer they played up at The Grange in Edinburgh, a year or so before the world cup, they fielded a squad team with a few first teamers but not too many and were embarrassed by Scotland, it seemed an irrelevance at the time tbh and just look how important it actually turned out to be.
I would put these games in that category, a learning process about who may be in contention (Sam Billings, Mahmood) and who might not (Vince?). The results are an irrelevance really, at least to England that is - it would be great for Ireland.
Definitely, that's why it's good to see the depth there, vince is the same as denly was for tests though, you just know he's never going to consistently perform so they should really be looking at other options imo.
