England spinner Adil Rashid, speaking on TNT Sports: “There was a bit of purchase for the spinners but we bowled exceptionally well as a unit. We had to adapt to what paces were required and as a group we did very well.

“We are all looking for to it [next year’s T20 World Cup]. We have New Zealand and Sri Lanka so tough times ahead but exciting times for England as a group.”

Ireland captain Paul Stirling: “We took a lot of positives from the week.

“When you play against England I don’t think you know what is a winning score. We were probably 15 short no matter who we were playing. Proud of the lads and the way they played today.”

England captain Jacob Bethell: “I couldn’t have dreamed it any better. The rained out game was unfortunate but to come out 2-0 winners in my first series as captain is a great feeling.

“We were nice and aggressive throughout the whole week.”
