Ireland's Road to Test Cricket
How Ireland became only the 11th country to play Test cricket in its 141-year history
This week's Stumped is a special edition from Dublin, as Ireland became only the 11th country to play Test cricket in its 141-year history.
So how did they rise from minnows to taking on - and beating - the best teams in the world?
We look back at three key matches that put Irish cricket on the map, including when they bowled the West Indies out for 25, and we hear from brothers Kevin and Niall O'Brien and some fanatical Ireland supporters.
