Team India’s Test Record At Lord’s

Team India is currently in England, with the five-match Test series evenly poised at 1-1. After a narrow loss in Leeds, India bounced back emphatically at Edgbaston, thrashing the hosts by 336 runs—their first-ever win at the venue. The victory was powered by captain Shubman Gill’s record-breaking double century, along with fiery five-wicket hauls from Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep.

Now, all eyes turn to the third Test at Lord’s, starting July 10, where both teams will look to seize the series lead.
