India have had their nose in front after Mohammed Shami broke a solid 85-run partnership between Rory Burns and Joe Root by dismissing the former. England finished Day 2 on 119/3, trailing by 245 runs.
Earlier, India lost their foot early in the day, as they lost K.L. Rahul and Ajinkya Rahane in the first two overs of the day. Rishabh Pant then contributed with 37 before getting out to Mark Wood. Ravindra Jadeja (40) too made a vital contribution, but the last four batters added eight runs in total.
Betway Fantasy Tips
- The Lord’s surface has not offered much to the pacers on Day 2. Even Siraj’s wickets were obtained through very straight deliveries.
- Joe Root is in terrific form. He is still batting on 48, and has looked at ease against the Indian pacers.
LiveScore Stats and Trivia
- Root has become the second-highest run-getter for England in Test cricket. He leapfrogged Graham Gooch yesterday and is now only behind Alastair Cook.
- Haseeb Hameed has had a forgettable comeback to the national side. He was bowled first ball.
