The latest match between the England cricket team and the India national cricket team is currently underway at Lord’s, London, for the 3rd Test of the 2025 series. The five-match series is level at 1-1. England captain Ben Stokes won the toss and opted to bat first, which is a shift from his previous decisions in the series and reportedly surprised Indian skipper Shubman Gill[1].
For this Test, India brought back pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah in the playing XI, replacing Prasidh Krishna. England handed a comeback to Jofra Archer, who replaced Josh Tongue and is set to play his first Test in four years[1]. This Test is significant: if India secure a win, Shubman Gill could become only the fourth Indian captain to register a victory at Lord’s in Test cricket[1].
In the context of the series:
- England won the 1st Test at Headingley, Leeds, by 5 wickets.
- India bounced back in the 2nd Test at Edgbaston, Birmingham, with a commanding 336-run win.
- The 3rd Test at Lord’s is now in progress, with England batting first after winning the toss[4].
