IND vs ENG Live Score – Virat Kohli’s decision to bat backfires: Virat Kohli’s decision to bat first proved to be a big failure as James Anderson completely destroyed India in the opening 45 minutes. Within the 1st hour, the England veteran sent KL Rahul, Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli back, leaving the visitors in deep trouble. While Ajinkya Rahane and Rohit Sharma carried on for a while, India had more humiliation left. Wickets fell like tenpins.
Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja both returned with single-digit scores while the batting hero of Lord’s Mohammed Shami returned for a golden duck. There was no comeback on the offer as India folded for just 78 runs in the first innings with nine batsmen scoring in single-digits. It was their third-lowest total against England in England.

The wicket had no help for seamers and they lacked discipline. Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami and Ishant Sharma all looked ordinary. Ishant was especially off-colour with an economy of 3.71.
England openers, who had been receiving a fair share of criticism after sending the 22nd opening pair since Andrew Strauss retired finally came good. Rory Burns and Haseeb Hameed attacked Indian bowlers from early on and earned redemption, smashing fifty runs each and bringing up a crucial 100-runs stand to remain unbeaten at the close. In fact, from 120 all-out in the 2nd innings at Lord’s England turned things around, closing the day at 120/0.
