Ireland v Pakistan - Test Match: Day Four
Kevin O'Brien after his historic century

Kevin O'Brien made history in May this year when he became the first test centurion for the Irish men's team in their first test match against Pakistan at the Malahide Cricket Club Ground. Carrying forward his reputation as a very capable all-rounder with a proven track record, Kevin O'Brien came in at number 6 and top scored for Ireland in both innings with 40 and a groundbreaking 118 in the second innings in a game where the Irish top order filled with batsman considered more technically capable than O'Brien like Ed Joyce and William Porterfield failed to capitalise on the starts they got.
