Auto RefreshIND vs ENG Highlights 3rd Test Day 1: Joe Root returns unbeaten on 99, England reach 251-4 at Stumps
IND vs ENG Highlights 3rd Test Day 1: Joe Root led the charge for England on a day, which saw Ben Stokes and Co. show patience and not go after the bowlers right from the word go. At Stumps on Day 1 at Lord's, Root was batting at 99 and was joined by Stokes at the other end, who returned unbeaten on 39. The duo added 79 runs for the fifth wicket, which took England to 251/4 at Stumps. Earlier, Root and Ollie Pope stood tall and resisted the Indian attack after joining hands almost at the start of first session. The pair watched out the remainder of the opening session and then the second before Ravindra Jadeja brought an end to it. The spinner struck right after Tea by getting Pope caught-behind on 44. Moments later Jasprit Bumrah castled Harry Brook for 11, reducing England to 172/4. Meanwhile, the day started with Nitish Kumar Reddy helping India get off to a strong start. The hosts, who won the toss and opted to bat, were rocked by Reddy's twin blows. The medium pacer removed both England openers - Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley - in the same over. Duckett was dismissed for 23, while Zak Crawley managed 18.

ℹ️MATCH INFO
That brings us to the intriguing undercurrent of the match. Has the bowling been outstanding, or have the batters simply been that good at navigating the challenges? In truth, the answer isn’t binary. It lives in the tense middle ground, where smart batting meets disciplined bowling. With neither side backing down, it's been a contest of technique and temperament.

MATCH INFO
India’s bowling hasn't been far behind in this fascinating contest, though they’ll certainly feel a few more wickets would have given them the stranglehold they were seeking. Jasprit Bumrah was as usual as relentless in his pursuit of edges, mixing up his angles beautifully while extracting uneven bounce and late movement that kept batters constantly guessing. Meanwhile, Ravindra Jadeja found just enough purchase from the surface to pose consistent threats, getting sufficient turn to create doubt in the batters’ minds.

MATCH INFO
The opening day delivered a thoughtful deviation from the usual Bazball bravado towards the conventional old-school Test cricket. This wasn’t a sprint, but it was an absolute slow burn, and the cricket matched that mood. The surface offered subtle assistance to the bowlers, and for the batters, it demanded patience rather than theatrics. England’s batters, led by the ever-composed Joe Root, responded with restraint as they built their innings with care and control.

Hello, everyone! The action continues at the Home of Cricket as Day 2 is upon us in this third Test of the Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy, 2025. This is a crucial Test from both teams' perspectives and has started off on a decent tone. England have taken an early lead in the game by dominating most of the first day with the bat, and now, the Indians are looking to strike back hard. On that note, a literally very warm welcome to our coverage.

MATCH INFO
Well then, an absorbing opening day of this third Test has flown by. It was laden with patience, grind, and of course, hard work. The surface offered subtle challenges, turn for Jadeja and the occasional uneven bounce for the seamers, keeping both bat and ball in constant contest. It was a hard-fought day that rewarded discipline and careful application over flair.

MATCH INFO
For a while, India held the squeeze, pairing spin and seam to keep the runs on a leash. But Joe Root was in his bubble of zen, unflustered by bounce or movement. He soaked up everything India threw at him, rarely looking hurried. Ben Stokes, at the other end, played himself in, struggling with a possible groin injury, but together they stitched another handy partnership that helped England stabilise as the shadows lengthened, and eventually coasted England safely to Stumps with an unbeaten 79-run stand.

MATCH INFO
The partnership had taken a good shape on a slow deck with the ball getting softer and softer, and conditions increasingly facilitative to batting. Come the third and final session, it just took the first ball for Jadeja to break that 109-run stand, and it was followed up nicely by Bumrah's ripper as he removed Brook cheaply, with England slipping from 153/2 to 172/4.

MATCH INFO
The second session was an absolute slow-burn, and lifeless, with the game progressing at a snail's pace. Not much happened, but the Indians were pretty disciplined with their lines and lengths. Rishabh Pant walked off the field after taking a blow on his fingers, with Jurel coming in as the substitute keeper. Pope and Root dug in a resilient stand with the former notching up yet another fifty, with Root also crossing 3000 Test runs against India itself. Overall, with not much action, only 70 runs came in the afternoon session in 24 overs, but the Indians were deprived of wickets. Hence, uncharacteristically, the session went England's way.

MATCH INFO
Ben Stokes yet again elected to bat on a sunny, bright day in London. However, India wrested control after a cautious first hour from England, with Nitish Kumar Reddy striking twice post drinks to peg the visitors back at 44/2. Again, the English opening pair failed to bat long enough. The slower pitch and residual moisture aided movement, especially from the Nursery End, where Bumrah and Reddy thrived. False shots, uneven bounce, and fading lacquer on the Dukes ball added to England’s discomfort, before Root and Pope steadied things to close a gripping session which ended as a draw.
