Though root

Nitish Kumar Reddy: Fast bowlers made the most of the new ball yet again in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series to help India leave England in trouble at 98/4 in 25 overs on day four’s play at Lord’s on Sunday.

It was a lively session of Test match cricket where India’s pacers hit good areas with the ball, got extra bounce and deviation to make life tough for England’s batters. That perseverance paid off as Mohammed Siraj picked 2-11, before Nitish Kumar Reddy and Akash Deep claimed one scalp each while Jasprit Bumrah was also at his mesmerising best to leave the crowd thrilled.

The morning session began with Bumrah getting one to kick up from a length and hit Crawley’s top hand. Bumrah makes an attempt to take the catch but it missed him by inches. If that wasn’t enough, an already rattled Crawley was almost trapped by a wobble ball from Siraj and India wasted a review as replays showed ball missing stumps.
