India trails England by 80 runs at Lord’s after Day 3 of the 3rd Test. KL Rahul scored a gritty century—his second at the venue—before falling to Shoaib Bashir. Rishabh Pant, battling a finger injury, smashed a valiant 74 before a direct-hit run-out by Ben Stokes. Jasprit Bumrah earlier claimed a five-wicket haul, earning a spot on the Lord’s honours board. The match was marred by ball-change controversies, with Shubman Gill visibly frustrated and Bumrah stating players “don’t have power” over such decisions. Ravindra Jadeja and Nitish Kumar Reddy steadied India’s innings late in the day, pushing the score past 300. The Test remains finely balanced heading into Day 4. (PC: NDTV)
