Brilliant Drama, Great Theatre & Red-blooded Contest: Atherton Reflects On Last-over Drama At Lord's
Former England: Former England captain Mike Atherton reflected on the final over where India’s captain Shubman Gill had a fiery exchange with Zak Crawley for the latter's cheeky delaying tactics during the final minutes on Day 3 of Lord's Test, saying he loved watching the "brilliant drama" and the "fantastic end to a nip-and-tuck day".
With 10 minutes left at the end of day three’s play on Saturday, Crawley was wasting time on the crease, pulling away four times before facing the third ball from Jasprit Bumrah that made Gill run from the slips, hurling verbals at Crawley and Ben Duckett. Mohammed Siraj also had a chirp.
Crawley was then hit on the glove, so he took a moment to take off his glove to check his hand and gestured for the physio to come on. Things began to heat up again as Gill made a sarcastic clap and gestured towards the pavilion, even as Crawley was checked for his injury, before being beaten by a seaming away delivery from Bumrah to end a day’s play.
