The ENG vs IND 3rd Test at Lord’s witnessed another heated moment on the final day of the game after Brydon Carse and Ravindra Jadeja were involved in a nasty collision. The incident happened on the final ball of the 35th over of India’s second innings.
Jadeja hit Carse on the offside and immediately took off for a single. However, with both the batter and the bowler ball-watching, the duo suffered a nasty collision. But replays later showed Carse’s arm around Jaddu’s shoulder in a tackle-like fashion, which made the England pacer’s intentions a bit suspicious.

For the unversed, tempers were flying all around after Shubman Gill’s animated response to England’s time-wasting tactics before the end of Day 3’s play. Next, before stumps on Day 4, England tried to play the same game when India sent in night watchman Akash Deep. Apart from that, minor exchanges of words and glances have been going around constantly.

Speaking about the ENG vs IND 3rd Test so far, the hosts are the favourites to win the contest after a stellar bowling display in the first session on Day 5. Chasing 193, India were already on the backfoot as England reduced the visitors to 58 for 4 at Day 4 stumps.
India thus needed to build a partnership in the first hour of Day 5 to tip the scales back in their favour. With Rishabh Pant walking out alongside overnight batter KL Rahul, the duo shouldered a big responsibility and hope. However, Jofra Archer and Ben Stokes struck early as India lost three wickets for 24 runs inside the opening hour. Archer first removed Pant (9) with a ripper to send the off-stump cartwheeling while Stokes trapped Rahul (39) lbw. Jofra then took an excellent low diving return catch to send Washington Sundar back to the pavilion for a four-ball duck.

With only three wickets remaining, it was then Ravindra Jadeja and Nitish Kumar Reddy who started building a partnership. But India’s pattern of losing wickets before the break continued as Chris Woakes removed Reddy for 13 just before lunch.
The Shubman Gill-led side now need 81 more runs to win in 68.3 overs and two wickets in hand.
Earlier, both teams scored 387 in their respective first innings in a rare cricketing coincidence, only happened nine times so far. KL Rahul and Jasprit Bumrah entered the Lord’s Honours with a century and a fifer respectively.
