The celebration expressed it all. Jofra Archer marked his comeback after a series of injuries with a wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal. The crowds in the Lord's cricket ground erupted in joy to celebrate the moment—the England crowd celebrated, and Jofra Archer celebrated.
When Jasprit Bumrah finds his rhythm, it turns into a nightmare for the opposition batters. England started Day 2 of the ongoing 3rd England vs India (ENG vs IND 3rd Test) Test of the 5-match series at Lord's with a hundred from Joe Root.
Day 1 of the ongoing 3rd of the 5-match Test series was surprising. Ben Stokes, England skipper, decided to bat first on the fresh Lord's track after winning the toss. The home team is mostly known for their attacking approach with the bat, which is labelled as the 'Bazball.'
It was a comparably slow day at the Lord's Cricket Ground. England got 251 for 4 on the scoreboard, and there are concerns over their captain Ben Stokes' fitness. Stokes was in visible discomfort, hobbling around the crease even after being attended by the physio.
England recovered from the early blows caused by Nitish Kumar Reddy. The second day of the ongoing 3rd Test can start with a huge applause by the audience at the Lord's. Joe Root is only a single run away from making another milestone hundred of his Test career and against India.

Nitish Kumar Reddy paid off in style at the Lord's. The all-rounder cleared both the openers—Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett—from the crease. Reddy's performance with the ball and bat was underwhelming in the previous game at Edgbaston.
Rishabh Pant in the Whites is always an exciting sight to watch. With his unorthodox style of batting, the keeper-batter in the ongoing England vs. India 5-match Test series has been in stunning form. In four innings, he smacked a couple of hundred and fifty-plus-run innings.
ENG vs IND 2025: England won the toss and decided to bat first on a fresh Lord's surface. The decision by the home team skipper Ben Stokes was surprising, as there is some grass on the track. Team India, as was expected, has included Jasprit Bumrah in their playing combination...
