Kevin O’Brien became the first Ireland batsman to score a ton in men’s Test cricket as the debutants avoided an innings defeat by Pakistan on Monday. Ireland, made to follow-on, were 319/7 at stumps on the fourth day at Malahide - a lead of 139 runs. O’Brien was 118 not out, having top-scored with 40 in Ireland’s meagre first innings 130 all out, with Stuart Thompson (53) providing good support in a seventh-wicket stand of 114. Earlier, Pakistan’s Mohammad Amir took his 100th Test wicket and for all O’Brien’s defiance the tourists remained well-placed to win this one-off match Ireland started the day on their highly creditable overnight 64 without loss.
