Catch OUT. OUT! Caught. Chris Woakes to Shubman Gill. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge, caught by Smith. The skipper departs for a low score this time.
65.3R Pant248/4
Run OUT. OUT! Run Out. Shoaib Bashir to Rishabh Pant. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot pushing, to short extra cover, direct hit by Stokes. That's Lunch on Day 3 at Lord's.

Their partnership surpassed the 100-run mark, with Rahul scoring a resilient 98 runs and showcasing his class. England's bowlers were unable to take any wickets on a benign surface, though that run out should put a spring in their step when they return after the break. Join us again in 40 minutes.

119.2Archer to W Sundar387/10
Catch OUT. OUT! Caught. Jofra Archer to Washington Sundar. Back of a length, wide outside off stump on the back foot pulling, top edge in the air uncontrolled to third man, caught by Brook. That marks the end of India's innings, and they level the scores. It was a gritty and determined effort from the Indian batters, but they will be disappointed to lose their last 4 wickets for just 11 runs. KL Rahul stood tall with a classy century, anchoring the innings with elegance and control while Rishabh Pant put aside his injured finger to score a fighting 74, frustrating the English attack. Ravindra Jadeja played a vital lower-order hand, steadying the innings when it mattered most, while Washington Sundar chipped in with a composed innings. England's bowlers, to their credit, remained disciplined throughout. They worked hard for their wickets and kept the pressure on, never allowing India to run away with the game. Now, let's get ready for England's second innings.
