India vs England Day 4 2nd Test match at Lord’s as it happened: India lose by innings and 159 runs.
India were defeated in the second Test of the series against England at Lord’s. India are now 0-2 down with three Test matches to play.
India went down weakly in the second innings of the second Test match at Lord’s, losing the match by an innings and 159 runs. Having been bowled out for 107 runs in the first innings, the team didn’t fare much better in the second innings scoring only 130. Indian top-order failed to perform yet again and like in the first innings off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin was the top scorer with 33. To add to India’s worries captain Virat Kohli didn’t look 100% fit on the fourth day of the match and with next match starting on Friday it produces a big dilemma for India. For England James Anderson took nine wickets in the match while Chris Woakes shone with an all round performance in the match.

Woakes - man of the match
Chris Woakes rightly has been made the man of the match for his brilliant batting and bowling performance.
