IND vs ENG 3rd Test: 'They betrayed everyone' - R Ashwin surprised by shift in England's approach
Ben Stokes (L) and Joe Root (R) of England(Photo by) Former India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has taken a light-hearted but sharp dig at England's batting approach on Day 1 of the third Test at Lord's. The veteran India off-spinner was left surprised, like many fans, as Ben Stokes ' side moved away from their aggressive 'Bazball' style and chose a more cautious route instead. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Ashwin jokingly said England had 'betrayed everyone' who expected attacking cricket. Instead of their usual free-flowing strokeplay, England batted at a much slower pace, scoring at around three runs an over. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! 'It was a good day for England,' Ashwin began, 'but everyone believed they would continue with Bazball. What we saw instead was Prankball. Their run rate dropped, and they looked far more defensive than expected.' Jasprit Bumrah press conference: Hits out at critics, on Lord's Honours Boards, ball controversy Ashwin, who has played several Tests against England, said he couldn't quite make sense of the shift in mindset. He also acknowledged Joe Root 's hundred as the standout performance of the day. 'I've said earlier that Joe Root scoring runs is very important for England. And just when it was needed, he delivered. That knock was a proper lesson in how to play Test cricket. Root is back,' he said. Poll How do you feel about the term 'Prankball' used by Ashwin? It's a funny take. It's a bit harsh. On the field, Root's brilliant 104 helped England reach 387 in their first innings. Jasprit Bumrah led India's bowling with a five-wicket haul. In reply, India ended Day 2 on 145 for 3, with KL Rahul steady at one end and Rishabh Pant playing positively despite a finger injury. Catch Manika Batra's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 3.

Jasprit Bumrah Cleans Up Jofra Archer With A Ripper To Achieve Historic Feat: Watch
Jasprit Bumrah claimed his first 5-wicket haul at Lord's, dismissing Jofra Archer post-lunch to complete his 15th Test fifer and etch his name on the Lord's Honours Board. Jasprit Bumrah got his name etched on the Lord's Honours Boards, registering yet another five-wicket haul in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. After ripping apart England's middle order in the morning session, Bumrah returned after the lunch break to dismiss Jofra Archer and complete his 15 th fifer in Test cricket; also his first at the home of cricket. The ace Indian pacer took down England's comeback man, Jofra Archer, who returned to Test cricket after 4 years. Bumrah got the ball to wobble in sharply from a length. Archer attempted to block off the back foot but ended up playing over the wrong line as it created a broad gap between the bat and pad. The ball sneaked through Archer's defence to shatter the stumps. Bumrah's Historic Feat at Lord's It was Jasprit Bumrah's first-ever 5-wicket haul at Lord's. He also became the first Indian bowler to take 13 five-wicket hauls in Tests away from home. He surpassed legendary Kapil Dev, who retired with 12 fifers in overseas Tests. Bumrah, who returned after missing the second Test, unleashed a devastating seven-ball spell in the morning to remove Joe Root (104), Ben Stokes (44), and Chris Woakes (0), reducing England from 251/4 to 271/7. However, Jamie Smith (51) and Brydon Carse (56) counterattacked with an 84-run eighth-wicket stand to frustrate India. Bumrah eventually dismissed Jofra Archer to complete his 15th Test fifer and first at Lord's. Mohammed Siraj took two wickets, including Smith after lunch and Carse to wrap up the innings. Earlier, Root reached his 37th Test hundred, surpassing Steve Smith and Rahul Dravid to enter the top five on the all-time list, led by Sachin Tendulkar (51).
