Pacer takes fifer after Root hundred as Eng post 387; Rahul holds India innings together
When the play began on Day 2 of the third Test at Lord's on Friday, all eyes were on Joe Root, England's leading run-scorer in Test cricket. Stranded on 99 at stumps, the 34-year-old Yorkshire batter couldn't have asked for a better start. A fullish delivery wide of the off stump by Bumrah. The first ball of the day was pushed through gully for four. Root completed his 37th century.
As expected, he was ecstatic and celebrated the moment with his teammate and captain Ben Stokes, with spectators giving him a huge round of applause. Little did he know the stage would soon be taken over by Jasprit Bumrah, the world No. 1 Test bowler and a legend in the making.
