Broad, legs pumping as is synonymous with his most memorable spells, very nearly claimed a fourth, and third for the over, as Paul Stirling was given out lbw first ball to see the veteran seamer on a hat-trick - only for the decision to be overturned on review, the ball sliding down the legside.
Stirling, as is his way, played his shots in an enterprising 30 from 35 balls to lead an Ireland recovery of sort and push them past 50 before he fell to Jack Leach (3-35), overbalancing when attempting to sweep and gloving a simple catch behind for Bairstow.
Opener James McCollum (33), meanwhile, battled his way through to lunch, grinding out 29 precious runs from his two hours of batting. He'd add only four more to that tally in the afternoon, however, as Broad found some swing and claimed his fourth, nicked to slip.
Lorcan Tucker didn't learn the lesson of Stirling before him and perished to Leach when attempting to sweep, trapped lbw - confirmed on review, 'umpire's call'.
