ENG vs IND Live: Mark Wood removes both Indian openers

English pacer Mark Wood made sure that the home side starts Day 4 of the second Test match at Lord’s on high. The right-arm pacer was brought early into the attack and he made sure that plan to bring him early in the innings paid off. He gave Joe Root-led side the first breakthrough by removing in from KL Rahul for just 5 runs.

If this was not enough, the right-arm pacer in his very next over removed Rohit Sharma for 21 runs. The right-handed batsman went for his favourite pull-shot but didn’t had much control and ended up a simple catch to Moeen Ali at the deep backward square. Notably, two balls before his dismissal, Sharma pulled a short ball from Wood for six behind square leg.
