After a convincing win at Edgbaston, Shubman Gill-led India will be high on confidence against Ben Stokes’ England in the third Test at Lord’s, starting from Thursday. The Anderson-Trophy Trophy is evenly-poised at 1-1. India had lost the opening Test at Leeds by five wickets. The visitors registered a massive 336-run win over the hosts to level the five-match series.For India, spearhead Jasprit Bumrah will return after missing the second Test due to workload management. Meanwhile, England will consider one too many changes after losing the second Test. England have added Gus Atkinson in the squad and it is very likely that he alongwith Jofra Archer. Archer has not played a Test match since February 2021, but bowled regularly during intervals at Edgbaston this week, and Brendon McCullum hinted he will make his comeback next week. “He’s fit and ready to go. Obviously the other boys have had two Test matches on the spin now, so you’d anticipate you would make a change at some stage with the line-up, and Jofra is one we’ll look at,” McCullum told the BBC’s Test Match Special.
