Playing on slow low decks like most are in New Zealand is a great leveller as it nullifies

an out and quickies pace and bounce, unless they can bowl good yorkers.
That said, in some respects this is better than the England win as that was mostly down to Ko'b playing the innings of his life, whereas this was more of a team effort and shows the progress that Ireland have made as a cricketing nation, remember now they have Stirling Wilson , Porterfield and Dockrell (and probably others i don't know about) playing county cricket.
