The third Test at Lords Test has been filled with drama and with England all out at a mere score of 192 in the second innings. This was possible after Washington Sundar picked four wickets and ripped apart England’s bowling lineup followed by Jasprit Bumrah (2 wickets), Mohammed Siraj (2 wickets). While India on the other hand has already lost 4 wickets in the second innings and still 135 runs are left to be chased.
Now all eyes will be on KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant to stabalize the innings and take India towards iconic victory at Lords Cricket Ground.
