Root is present at the crease and will continue batting on Day 3 from 48, while Burns was trapped LBW on 49 by Mohammed Shami. 

Meanwhile, after resisting the Indian attack in the second session, Mohammed Siraj inflicted double blows in the final session of the day to push the hosts on backfoot. However, some smart batting by Root and Burns helped England crawl but India will still consider themselves ahead of their opponent. 

Meanwhile, riding on KL Rahul's brilliant century and Rohit Sharma's valuable contribution, India posted a strong 364 runs as their first-inning total.

Rahul scored 129 off 250 deliveries, which included 12 fours and one six, while Rohit added 83. Both the batsmen was dismissed by James Anderson, who ended the innings with a five-wicket haul. 

After starting Day 2 from the overnight score of 276/3, with both Rahul and Ajinkya Rahane in the middle, India were rattled in the first two overs. Ollie Robinson provided England with the ideal start as the pacer removes Rahul in the first over. 

Meanwhile, veteran pacer Anderson removed Rahane from the middle, in the following over after the right-handed batsman edged a ball straight to Joe Root at slips. The batsman departed for 1.

However, India recovered as Rishabh Pant along with Ravindra Jadeja added 49 runs for the sixth wicket, before the wicketkeeper-batsman was removed by Mark Wood on 37.

Jadeja, who was the last Indian batsman to be dismissed, helped India finish 346/7 at Lunch. 

Jaeja then with Ishant Sharma helped India edge past the 350-run mark, following which, Anderson quickly wrapped up the Indian tail. 

The opening day of the second Test between India and England at Lord's belonged to the visitors as Rahul scored a spectacular century to help India put 276/3 on the board.
