Bumrah burst removes century-maker Root but England powers to 353-7 against India
LONDON — Joe Root reached his 37th test century before becoming one of three batters to succumb to India star pacer Jasprit Bumrah as England powered to 353-7 by lunch on Day 2 of the third test at Lord's.
Resuming on 99 with England 251-4, Root sent a streaky cut shot for four off Bumrah from the first ball of the day to notch an eighth hundred at the home of cricket — his favorite venue — and his 11th against India.
