India vs England 2nd Test Day 2 live updates

India meet England on Day 2 of the second Test at Lord’s, London on Friday.

Here are the live match updates from Day 2:

# Anderson scalped Murali Vijay and KL Rahul with nearly similar deliveries. A late out-swinger! To Vijay, he bowled it around the middle and off stump and bowled outside the off stump for Rahul. Vijay opened his shoulder and wanted to play it over the leg but the ball swung away from him and knocked the off stump. KL Rahul was drawn forward and once again the ball swung late from the off-stump line and took an outside edge to Bairstow. Both the batsmen opened up and failed to read the swing and hardly covered the line. Just like the Edgbaston match, the away swinger continues to trouble the Indian batsmen. This is testing times for India.

# Rain stops play! Heavy drizzle and the players are off the field. India will be happy to take a breather here.

# India 10/2! Click here for the detailed scorecard.

# Wicket!! James Anderson is having the time of his life. Forces Rahul (8) forward and the late swing takes an outside edge back to keeper Jonny Bairstow. India lose their second wicket!

# The ball is moving around, carrying well. James Anderson is bowling brilliantly and looks in a good rhythm. It will be a tricky first session for the Indians, who will have to read the swing well.

# Though Pujara has not been among the runs in the recent matches, he eats up a lot of deliveries and more importantly, he survives the new ball. This makes it easy for other batsmen, who don’t have to face the new ball.

# Cheteshwar Pujara is in at number three.

# Wicket!! What a delivery. James Anderson bowls a beautiful delivery that swings away to knock Vijay’s off-stump! Vijay departs for a duck.

# Murali Vijay and KL Rahul will open the innings for India.

# Surrey’s 20-year-old Ollie Pope makes his Test debut at Lord’s.
