Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami have added 89 runs for the ninth wicket for India in the second Test match at Lord’s. Shami was 56 not out and Bumrah was at 34 not out when India declared their innings.
Many veterans of the game slammed England’s tactics and their way of approach in the 2nd innings when Shami and Bumrah were in charge.
Shami reached his half-century with a mammoth 92-metre slog off Moeen Ali. It was Shami’s second Test half-century in 53 matches. The 30-year-old also reached his highest score in Test cricket, surpassing the 51 against England at Trent Bridge in 2014. Bumrah, dropped by Root at first slip on 22, also reached his highest Test score. In the first innings, both Shami and Bumrah were out for zero. But in second innings, they have turned the tables on England.
