India trails England by 51 runs at Lord’s after Day 3 of the 3rd Test. KL Rahul’s gritty century and Rishabh Pant’s fifty anchored India’s response to England’s 387, which featured Joe Root’s ton and Jasprit Bumrah’s five-wicket haul. Rahul’s dismissal post-century and Pant’s run-out shifted momentum, but Ravindra Jadeja and Nitish Reddy steadied the innings with a 72-run stand. Ball-change controversies continued, with both teams expressing frustration. England’s bowlers, led by Ben Stokes and Shoaib Bashir, kept pressure on. India closed at 336/6, with Jadeja unbeaten on 50. The Test remains finely poised heading into Day 4 of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. (PC: AFP)
