India pulled off a historic victory against England in the second Test of five-match series at Lord's. The Virat Kohli-led side successfully defended 271 runs on the final day. A game-changing partnership between Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah helped India gain the edge. Hostile spells from Indian fast bowlers did the rest. Notably, India have registered their third-ever Test win at Lord's.
Virat Kohli has become the third Indian captain to win a Test match at Lord's. Before this, India last won here in 2014, under MS Dhoni. Ishant Sharma took a seven-for as India won by 95 runs. This time as well, Ishant was lethal in the second innings. India had registered their first-ever Test win at Lord's in 1986 (under Kapil Dev).
