3rd Test: Jadeja’s Admirable Fightback In Vain As England Seal Stunning 22-run Win (Ld)
ODI World Cup: After nearly five days of absolutely gripping and absorbing Test cricket, England rallied around and survived an admirable fightback from a resilient Ravindra Jadeja to seal a stunning 22-run win over India at Lord’s and take a 2-1 lead in the five-match Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series.
Resuming from 58/4, England’s fast bowlers were right on the money as India were eight down when lunch break came. But Jadeja refused to buckle in hitting a gritty and magnificent 61 not out off 181 balls – his fourth successive half-century in Tests.
Despite him and the lower order giving it their all, India were so close yet so far to register a miraculous victory by being bowled out for 170 in 74.5 overs. For England, skipper Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer took three wickets each off bowling 24 and 16 overs respectively, while Brydon Carse had two scalps.
