Team India pacer Mohammed Siraj almost lost his cool at England batter Joe Root on day one of the 3rd Test on Thursday at the Lord's Cricket Ground. The right-arm speedster almost threw the ball in anger at Root, who backed off when Siraj was almost about to deliver the ball.
The incident occurred in the 66th over of the innings as the Yorkshire batter likely pulled out of his stance due to the spider cam moving in the background. Root was explaining the same to Siraj by coming down the wicket but the Hyderabad-born cricketer had an expression of anger on his face.
England win hat-trick of tosses as Ben Stokes opts to bat first at Lord's
Meanwhile, England captain Ben Stokes had won an important toss and elected to bat first at the iconic Lord's Cricket Ground. Both sides have made one change to their XI, with the hosts already announcing a day before about Jofra Archer replacing Josh Tongue. Meanwhile, Indian skipper Shubman Gill announced that Jasprit Bumrah has replaced Prasidh Krishna.
India (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Karun Nair, Shubman Gill(c), Rishabh Pant(w), Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Akash Deep, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.
England (Playing XI): Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes(c), Jamie Smith(w), Chris Woakes, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Shoaib Bashir.
The tourists have already dismissed Crawley and Duckett as Nitish Kumar Reddy struck in his first over, sending the openers packing. But Joe Root and Ollie Pope settled in well after overcoming a tough phase following lunch. Nevertheless, Ravindra Jadeja claimed the wicket of Pope for 44 after tea.
The hosts ended day one at 251/4, with Joe Root staying unbeaten at 99.
