Joe Root and Rory Burns added 85 runs before the partnership was broken by Mohammed Shami, who send back the England opener for 49.

England dominated the morning session of the second day, picking up 4 wickets for 70 runs. Moeen Ali dismissed Shami for a duck and Mark Wood had Rishabh Pant out caught behind after the wicketkeeper batsman scored 37 off 58 balls, and along with Ravindra Jadeja, took India to over 300. England had the perfect start to the Day 2 of the Lord's Test getting two wickets in the first two overs. Ollie Robinson dismissed centurion KL Rahul second ball of the day followed by Anderson getting the other overnight batsman Ajinkya Rahane out caught at first slip.

Stumps on Day 2

And that will be the final ball of the day. India fell short by 7 runs but that is the end of Day 2 at Lord's. England 119/3, well behind India's first-innings total of 364. Yet another session that belongs to India. Even though Root and Burns added 85 runs for the third wicket, that India picked up three wickets - two in the beginning and one in the closing moments of play - makes them the winner of that session.

WICKET! Shami gets the breakthrough

OUT! Burns misses 50 as Shami traps him LBW for 49. Much-needed breakthrough for India as they break this threatening partnership. Burns takes the review. No inside edge and the ball would have cannoned onto the stumps. England 108/3

Aug 13, 2021, 22:17:39 IST

Joe Root, England's second highest Test run-getter

Joe Root has overtaken the great Graham Gooch to become England's second-highest run-scorer. Gooch scored 8900 runs for England, and Root is now five ahead of him. Only Alastair Cook is ahead of Root now with 12,472 runs.

FOUR! Burns grows in confidence

Burns and Root have added 55 for England's third wicket with the opening batsman showing a lot of intent in the last half an hour. Ishant drops the ball full and in the slot, and Burns plays an emphatic cover drive for a boundary.

Aug 13, 2021, 21:41:48 IST

Three adventurous deliveries from Ishant to Root

Ishant begins his new over with a loose delivery - short and wide, which Root gleefully puts away to the boundary. Next ball, Root edges Ishant as the ball flies through the vacant second slip. Third ball of the over, Root inside edged the ball, which went to Pant on the bounce. 

Aug 13, 2021, 21:38:12 IST

Three fours in four balls, England bring up FIFTY

If Burns showed he was good with drives, here he cracks back to back pull shots for fours. Authoritative strokes, almost identical shots.

Aug 13, 2021, 21:35:34 IST

FOUR! Burns drives down the ground

While all the focus has been on Root, Rory Burns is slowly going about his innings. Drives Siraj beautifully down the ground for his third four. Lovely to the eye.

Aug 13, 2021, 21:33:27 IST

Another poor call, another review burned

India have lost another review. Siraj once again to Root and the ball hits the England captain on his pads. Surely a lot closer than the previous one but still you get the hint that it's missing leg. But Siraj things otherwise and convinces Kohli to go for it. The India captain went with it even though Kohli tried to stop him from displaying the T sign. Up he goes and it's another review lost for India

Aug 13, 2021, 21:10:24 IST

India lose a review

India are a review down after they reviewed an LBW call against Root. Siraj rapped him on the pads and even though there was no bat involved, it was doing too much. The tracker shows the ball missing leg stump. 

Aug 13, 2021, 21:09:48 IST

Siraj loses his line, Root capitalises

Siraj has bowled wicket to wicket so far but on that instance he loses his line and drifts the ball down Root's pads. Easy picking for the England captain, who flicks for four. The kind of form he is in, he would put those away with his eyes closed.

Aug 13, 2021, 20:59:11 IST

Root tucks Siraj away for four

Joe Root is underway as he rolls his wrists convincingly to get himself his first boundary. England have their hopes pinned on Root once again.

Aug 13, 2021, 20:38:39 IST

WICKET! Two in two for Siraj

OUT! Two wickets in two balls as Siraj cleans up Hameed for a duck. What happened there? Did he expect the ball to move? Has to be. Hameed had no clue. It was full and straight, and beat Hameed's defence to be castled. England 23/2. What more? Siraj is on a hat-trick.

Aug 13, 2021, 20:36:17 IST

WICKET! Siraj strikes first over after tea

OUT! Siraj strikes second ball into the final session. Dom Sibley chips the ball to KL Rahul at short mid-wicket. He's done it again. The dismissal is identical to the one in the first innings of the Nottingham Test. There too, he had fallen after a session interval. England 23/1

Aug 13, 2021, 20:16:21 IST

Tea on Day 2, England 23/0

Only 41 runs scored in the second session but England would be happy heading into the interval without having lost a wicket. They trail India by 341 runs.

Aug 13, 2021, 20:14:35 IST

India bring in Shami, Siraj just before tea

After a six and five over spell for Ishant and Bumrah, India make a double bowling change bringing in the other two pacers - Shami and Siraj - into the attack. One more over to go before the tea break. 

Aug 13, 2021, 19:58:45 IST

A quiet start

Like India, England's start hasn't been adventurous either. Ishant and Bumrah have operated on tight lines and lengths to keep Sibley and Burns in check. Neither batsman would mind it though. That is exactly what India did yesterday, and we all know how their openers were rewarded later on for that approach.

Aug 13, 2021, 19:32:11 IST

Sibley away with a glorious boundary

First four for England and it comes off the bat of Dom Sibley. Slightly full in length and Sibley produces the full face of the bat to play a glorious on drive as the ball races away.

Aug 13, 2021, 19:16:10 IST

Nicked, but safe! Almost a wicket in the first over for India

Ishant induces the outside edge of Rory Burns' bat but it falls just short of Rohit Sharm at second slip. Burns takes a single to finish the over. England off the mark. 

Aug 13, 2021, 19:02:54 IST

India all out for 364

Mark Wood picks up the final wicket as Ravindra Jadeja top edges to Anderson for 40. With that, the Indian innings comes to an end at 364. Not what they would have had in mind after finishing Day 1 on 276/3. On a morning, there India fancied their chances of putting in excess of 400-plus on the board, they lost 7 wickets for 86 runs.

Aug 13, 2021, 18:58:15 IST

It's a five-for for James Anderson, what a legend

Nicked, Out! James Anderson has another five-wicket haul. India 364/9

Aug 13, 2021, 18:49:28 IST

Wicket: Anderson ends Ishant's vigil

A useful partnership of 26 runs come to an end as Anderson traps Ishant out LBW for 8. The batsman took the review and even though the impact was outside off, it counted since it was umpire's call. India retain the review but lose a wicket. Eight down for 362.

Aug 13, 2021, 18:38:05 IST

FOUR! Ishant gives himself room

After a series of blocks, Ishant backs away, gives himself room as smashes Wood over point for four. Right in the slot and Ishant says, ‘Alright! This one’s got to go'. 

Aug 13, 2021, 18:36:15 IST

Another nervy moment for Ishant

Wood is peppering Ishant Sharma with the short balls but he is batting with defiance. However, Ishant almost gets himself into trouble as he taps the ball just wide off Haseeb Hameed at short leg. Jadeja doesn't responds and with Ishant out of the crease, Hameed has a shy at stumps but misses. A direct hit that would have been it for Ishant's stay. 

Aug 13, 2021, 18:24:25 IST

350 up for India, Ishant withstands England pacers

Ishant Sharma is doing a decent job with the bat, seeing out overs. First from Anderson and now from Robinson. He guides the ball through third slip and gully to complete a couple of runs and bring up India's 350.

Aug 13, 2021, 18:20:49 IST

Anderson has a crack at Ishant

No single off the last ball of the last over meant that James Anderson got a full over to bowl at Ishant Sharma but India's No. 9 plays it out brilliantly and rushes for a single. Jadeja couldn't take a single which means he will once again be on strike for the next over as well.
