Sourav Ganguly On Team India Defeat Lord’s Test: The way India lost against England at Lord’s, the players as well as fans and former cricketers are disappointed. Team India legend Sourav Ganguly has also expressed disappointment and believes that India should have achieved the target. Team India dominated most of the time in the third Test, but the tables turned from the last session of the fourth day and in the end England won by 22 runs. In this way, Ben Stokes and company have taken a 2-1 lead in the series.

At Lord’s, both England and India scored 387 runs in their first innings. After this, the England team somehow managed to score 192 runs in their second innings. Seeing the target of 193, it was expected that Team India would win but it did not happen. The Indian team was able to score only 170 runs.

Ganguly said on Tuesday in the Indian Racing League and F4 India Championship,

“I am a little disappointed with the way India batted in this series, they should have achieved the target (193 runs).”

Sourav Ganguly praised Ravindra Jadeja

Despite India’s defeat in the third Test, Ravindra Jadeja is being praised a lot. Jaddu held the fort from one end and remained unbeaten till the end. He faced 181 balls and scored 61 runs. Sourav Ganguly also seemed impressed with Jadeja’s batting and praised this all-rounder player.

Ganguly said, “When you saw Jadeja fighting and scoring runs, the level of batting of this team got even better, and he would be more disappointed than me because it was a good opportunity to take a 2-1 lead in the series against England. Jadeja has been exceptional, as long as he continues to bat and perform like this, he will continue to play for India.
He has been in the team for a long time. He has played about 80 Test matches and more than 200 ODIs. You can see him batting, bowling and fielding. He is a special player and with the experience of the last few years, his batting has really improved. He is a special player and a very important part of this team.”

Jasprit Bumrah: “Play the last two Tests” – Former Indian captain’s big statement about Jasprit Bumrah, gave important advice on workload

Anil Kumble wants Jasprit Bumrah play last two test vs England: The Indian team has lagged behind in the five-match Test series against England. Team India had performed brilliantly at Edgbaston but lost a thrilling match by 22 runs at Lord’s and England has taken a 2-1 lead. Jasprit Bumrah also made a comeback in the third Test but despite that India had to face defeat. Now there is a break of a few days in the fourth Test but Bumrah’s playing in it is not certain. Meanwhile, former Indian captain Anil Kumble has requested the fast bowler to push himself and play the last two Tests of the current series.

When the Indian team’s squad was announced for the England tour, head coach Gautam Gambhir had made it clear in the press conference that due to workload management, Jasprit Bumrah would play only three out of five Tests. However, which of these three Tests will be played will be decided later. On the current tour, Bumrah played the match in Leeds but then he was rested in Edgbaston. Now he has played the match in Lord’s but there is no update on whether he will play in Manchester or not.

Workload can be managed by skipping the domestic series

After Team India’s defeat in the Lord’s Test, Anil Kumble said about Jasprit Bumrah on Jio Hotstar,

“If I was part of that group, I would definitely tell Bumrah to play the next match. This is very important. If he does not play and then we lose the Test, then that’s it—the series is over. I think Bumrah should play the remaining two Tests. I know he has said that he will play only three matches, but there is a long break after that. He does not need to play the domestic series, he can take a break if needed.
But I believe that he should be on the field for the next two matches.” Let us tell you that India will have to avoid defeat in the next Test at all costs to stay alive in the series. If England wins, then it will get an unassailable lead in the series. The fourth Test of the series is to be held from July 23. The fifth and final Test will start from August 31 at the Oval.

“He has learned nothing in 57 Tests” – veteran’s scathing attack on England batsman; demanded to drop him from the team

Geoffrey Boycott Slams Zak Crawley: England got a thrilling win against India at Lord’s and took a 2-1 lead in the series. However, despite the victory of the England team, the poor form of opener Jack Crawley remains a topic of discussion. Crawley also flopped in both innings of the third Test and after this a big statement has come from former English legend Geoffrey Boycott. Boycott has targeted Crawley and has also demanded to drop him from the team.

Zak Crawley scored 65 runs in the second innings of the first Test of the five-match series for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, but after that his scores in the next four innings were 19, 0, 18 and 22 respectively. Even before this, there has been a lack of consistency in his performance and that is why his career average is nothing special despite 57 Tests.

Geoffrey Boycott takes aim at Zak Crawley’s Test career

In his column in The Telegraph, the former England opener wrote that scoring at an average of 31 with five centuries in 57 Tests is no big deal. He wrote:

“How many more chances will Crawley get? He hasn’t learned anything in his 57 Tests. Caught behind off a fast ball in the first innings and a front-foot drive off a wide-line delivery in the second innings, leading to a caught out at gully. He has been dismissed in this way too many times. It’s time to go. Five centuries and an average of 31 are not enough.”

Boycott warned the England team that the Australian pace trio (Stark, Hazlewood and Cummins) would be desperate to bowl to Crawley during the Ashes. He said, “Most opposition bowlers are eagerly waiting to take off their sweaters to bowl to him. Can you imagine what the Australian fast bowlers will be thinking about this winter’s Ashes series? If Starc can’t get you out, Hazlewood and Cummins will get you out.”

Rohit Sharma And Virat Kohli ODI Return Confirm: Everyone is eagerly waiting for the return of two big names and great players of the Indian team, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Not only their fans but the BCCI itself is also missing them. Such a statement has been given by Rajiv Shukla, Vice President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India. When Team India met Prince Charles III after the Lord’s Test on Tuesday, Rajiv Shukla was also present with the team. After this, he also talked about Virat and Rohit in front of the media.

Rohit Sharma and Virat are being missed…

Rohit Sharma: While talking to the media, the BCCI vice president said that,

We all are missing Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Both the players had taken the decision to retire on their own will. It has never been the policy of BCCI to ask any player to retire. We still consider both of them to be great batsmen.

Both will return in ODIs

Let us tell you that Virat and Rohit’s fans will be very happy to hear the line said by BCCI Vice President Rajiv Shukla in the end. He said that,

The good thing is that both the players are still available to play ODIs.

Put an end to all rumors!

It is worth noting that a rumor came out last week. In the midst of the Lord’s Test, such news started flying that now Shubman Gill is going to get the ODI captaincy of Team India. At the same time, it was also being said in viral rumors that Rohit has also told the board that if he does not captain, he will retire from ODIs. But with the statement of Rajiv Shukla, this rumor has been put to a full stop to a great extent.

Now it is clear that Virat and Rohit are going to return to ODIs. But it will be interesting to see when both of them will return. By the way, there are also reports that after the Bangladesh tour was canceled, now Team India can tour Sri Lanka for 3 ODIs and 3 T20s in the middle of August after the England series. The official announcement of this tour is yet to be made. At the same time, it will also become clear whether Virat and Rohit will return on this tour or perhaps in the ODI series against Australia in October.

4 Pacer took hat-trick in WTC: Australia took a big step for the third Test against West Indies and dropped their key spinner Nathan Lyon and included fast bowler Scott Boland. This decision of the Kangaroo team proved to be completely correct and Boland created history on the third day of the match. The 36-year-old bowler wreaked havoc in the second innings of West Indies and made a splash by taking a hat-trick by taking wickets in three consecutive balls.

WTC: In this way, Scott Boland has now joined the bowlers who took a hat-trick in Tests. At the same time, Boland has become the sixth bowler to take a hat-trick in WTC. So far only 6 bowlers have done this in the World Test Championship, out of which two are spinners. In this article, we are going to mention all the four fast bowlers who have taken a hat-trick in WTC.

4. Jasprit Bumrah

WTC: Jasprit Bumrah of India was the first fast bowler to take a hat-trick in the World Test Championship. Bumrah did this in the match played in Kingston during the tour of West Indies in the year 2019. He dismissed Darren Bravo, Shamrah Brooks and Roston Chase on three consecutive balls in his one over during the first innings of West Indies.

3. Naseem Shah

Pakistani fast bowler Naseem Shah has also achieved the feat of taking a hat-trick in WTC. Naseem achieved this feat in the first Test played during Bangladesh’s tour of Pakistan in 2020. In the Test match held in Rawalpindi, Naseem took the wickets of Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Taijul Islam and Mahmudullah.

2. Gus Atkinson

English pacer Gus Atkinson took a hat-trick in the Test match held in Wellington against New Zealand in the end of 2024. Atkinson had dismissed Nathan Smith, Matt Henry and Tim Southee during this period. In this way, Atkinson completed a hat-trick by taking the last three wickets on consecutive balls during New Zealand’s first innings.

1. Scott Boland

Mitchell Starc was wreaking havoc in his 100th Test but in the meantime Scott Boland took a hat-trick in his partner’s milestone. Boland dismissed Justin Greaves, Shamar Joseph and Jomel Warrican during West Indies’ second innings. In this way, Boland became the first bowler to take a hat-trick with the pink ball.

Difficult for India to win the series? Opportunity lost at Lord’s! No win in Manchester for 89 years; 3 big questions in front

Posted on July 16, 2025 by Mahi

England vs India Test Series 2025: Three matches of the current five-match Test series Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy have been played between India and England. After a spectacular 22-run win at Lord’s, the host team has taken a 2-1 lead. Now it has become necessary for the Indian team to make a comeback in the series from here but the road ahead is not going to be easy for the team. The next Test will be played at Old Trafford in Manchester. India has never won a Test there. India has been waiting for a Test win here for 89 years.

Now it is time to end Manchester’s reign…

India had a golden opportunity at Lord’s to stay in the series and take the lead. India had performed well on this ground in the last 10-12 years. But the defeat here has turned all the equations upside down. Then there are the challenges of Manchester and Kennington Oval. We have never won in Manchester. Since 1936, India has played 9 Test matches on this ground, out of which it has lost four and drawn five. It remains to be seen whether Shubman Gill is able to end the reign of Manchester after Birmingham.

But it is difficult for India to win the series…!

At the same time, everyone has seen the condition of the Oval when Australia defeated India by more than 200 runs in the final of WTC 2023. Then Mark Wood can also return in the last Test. In such a situation, if Carse, Archer, Wood and Atkinson get a chance, they can prove to be dangerous for Team India. Therefore, looking at the record of Team India on both the grounds and the current English conditions and performance, we are saying that now it seems difficult for India to win the series.

3 big questions in front of ‘Double G’…

Not only this, the playing combination of Team India is also going to be a big headache for coach Gambhir and captain Gill. Injury, workload management and poor performance on different aspects, these three things are also troubling the team management a lot. Due to this, now three big questions have also arisen in front of the team and the coach. Let’s know what are those three big questions:-

1- Jasprit Bumrah’s availability

It is worth noting that it was announced before the series that Bumrah will not play the second and fourth Test matches. This has been seen so far. Despite the defeat in the first Test and Team India falling behind, he was not played. Now the same situation has come before the fourth Test when India is trailing 1-2 in the series. But it seems difficult for Bumrah to play.

In such a situation, who should be given a chance in his place is also a big question. Prasidh has been beaten a lot in two matches. Akashdeep also did not look completely fit and comfortable in the third Test. In such a situation, it is also not known how effective Arshdeep Singh will be, because he has never played Test and neither does he have experience of English conditions.

2- Karun Nair’s flop show, thoughts on number 3…

The number 3 position and Karun Nair’s performance have been a matter of concern since the first Test. Sai Sudarshan played at number 3 in the first Test but he was also a flop. After that, he sat out in the last two matches and Karun Nair was brought to number 3 from number 6-7. He has also failed. In such a situation, after flopping in 6 consecutive innings, his ouster is considered certain. At the same time, there is no guarantee of how effective Sai Sudarshan will be. However, the team has a talented player in the form of Abhimanyu Easwaran, but his game has not yet come to the fore at the international level.

3- Rishabh Pant’s injury

Rishabh Pant’s injury also put India in trouble in the Lord’s Test. He was not present in wicketkeeping. India lost 25 runs in the second innings in byes. Apart from this, he was also having trouble in batting. Due to this, he looked uncomfortable in both the innings and was seen playing one handed shots many times leaving his left hand. In the second innings also, he tried to defend the ball on which he was bowled with one hand. In such a situation, it is very important for him to be fit. If he is not fit, then without any thinking, Dhruv Jurel will have to be tried.
