British and Irish Lions winners and losers after Andy Farrell's side fall to 28-24 defeat by Argentina - including one forward who had an outstanding display
After months of anticipation, the 2025 British & Irish Lions tour got off to a false start as Andy Farrell's side were beaten 28-24 by Argentina in Dublin. MailSport's Alex Bywater was at the Aviva Stadium to look at the players who stood out for head coach Farrell and who struggled to get going… Ellis Genge (prop) Genge really put down a marker. He anchored a Lions scrum that had dominance over the Argentinians – no mean feat given the Pumas pride themselves on their work in that area – and was also a marauding threat in the loose. Genge had a great carry in the build-up to Tadhg Beirne's second-half try. He looks like a man set for a big tour. Fin Smith (fly-half) Emulated his grandfather Tom Elliot by becoming a Lion and manipulated the Argentina defence well, creating one-on-one opportunities for his dangerous outside backs. A first look at the 2025 Lions suggested they will play with an Ireland-style pod system in attack. Smith had plenty of forward options to use on short lines, but also out wide. It was noticeable how the Lions backs were always attached to each pod. While Farrell's men were understandably far from perfect, Smith can be pleased with his outing. Tommy Freeman (wing) Scored in every round of the Six Nations for England and was a lively operator here, always looking for work. Farrell wants his wingers heavily involved all over the field and that suits Freeman down to the ground. Quick and powerful in the carry. Will be a key man Down Under. Sione Tuipulotu (centre) Hasn't played much this season and unfortunately, there was a degree of rust to his performance. Dropped one ball from Freeman. It would be harsh to blame a team's defensive struggles on one player alone, but the Lions were breached too often in his 13 channel. Probably better off at inside centre. Will definitely improve on this the more he plays. Luke Cowan-Dickie (hooker) Not a great birthday for the Sale hooker. Had an early try ruled out and struggled at line-out time. Too many of the Lions' throws went awry, with a couple overthrown. Cowan-Dickie did play a part in the strong Lions scrum but he was replaced early in the second half. Line-out didn't improve with Ronan Kelleher on in his place. British & Irish Lions: M Smith 5; Freeman 7.5, Tuipulotu 4, Aki 6 (Daly 60), Van der Merwe 6 (Hansen 60); F Smith 7, Mitchell 5.5 (Williams 50,7); Genge 8 (Schoeman 60), Cowan-Dickie 4 (Kelleher 50), Bealham 7.5 (Furlong 60) (Bealham 80+1,7.5), Itoje (capt) 6.5 (Cummings 72,5), Beirne 7, Curry 6.5, Morgan 6 (Pollock 50), Earl 4

England stay patient after decision to ask India to bat backfires as bowling coach Tim Southee puts his faith in new ball and 'X-factor' Ben Stokes
England bowling coach Tim Southee invited judgment to be reserved until both teams have batted after a 'tough' opening day against India at Headingley. Not since Nasser Hussain inserted Australia in the 2002-03 Ashes has a toss decision at the start of a five-match series been scrutinised as heavily as that of Ben Stokes. Just as in Brisbane, when the hosts piled up 364 for two, the opening hours featured two centurions in Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal as England did not make use of what moisture there was in the pitch. 'It was a tough day, but we will get our opportunity to bat soon,' said Southee after India hit 359 for three. 'When you win the toss and bowl you expect to make early inroads, but the Indian openers negotiated the first hour pretty well. Once the wicket flattened, it was a pretty good surface. 'We have a job to do with the second new ball and then there are a few batters who will be keen to get out there.' Only nine balls Gill faced would have gone on to hit the stumps, but Southee highlighted how the favoured mode of dismissal of Chris Woakes and Brydon Carse is caught behind, leading to them operating outside off-stump. With others offering little threat, it was left to Stokes to provide two breakthroughs, striking in each of two spells that made up figures of two for 43. After two hamstring tears in 2024, the 34-year-old is back as an all-rounder, but England fans will not want him to overdo things in an Ashes year. 'There's always a question around that with the injuries he's had, but he's a player that makes things happen, a real X-factor player, and we saw that,' added Southee. 'When he's doing that it's tough to get the ball out of his hand. He's out there making the calls, so if he's feeling like he's threatening he's going to bowl. It's as well as I have seen him bowl for a while.'
