England continued their domination over India in the second Test at Lord’s on Saturday (August 11). After bowling out the visitors to a mere 107 on the second day, the English batsmen piled on the agony and ended up making 357/6 at stumps on Day 3.

Despite reducing England to 89/4 in the first session, Indian bowlers didn’t manage to tighten up the screws. At first, England's wicketkeeper batsman Jonny Bairstow put on a 42-run stand for the fifth wicket with Jos Buttler and then followed it up with a match-changing 189-run partnership with Chris Woakes.

Bairstow scored 93 runs before Hardik Pandya got rid of him while Woakes registered his maiden Test ton from 129 balls. After Bairstow’s dismissal, Woakes carried on the good show with the hero of the last match – Sam Curran. The duo forged an unbeaten 37-run stand in rather quick time to dent India’s confidence even further before the bad light stopped play and the game was eventually called off for the day.

While Woakes remained not out on 120, Curran stayed at the crease on 22* as England stretched their lead to 250 runs at stumps on Day 3. For India, Mohammad Shami claimed 3 wickets whereas Pandya and Ishant chipped in with 2 and 1 scalp each.

Twitter experts were impressed to see the way Woakes and Bairstow took the game away from the tourists while they were also critical of the Indian bowlers.
