England right-hand batter Joe Root's poor form in Tests against India's right-arm seamer Jasprit Bumrah continued as the former was once again dismissed by the latter on the second day of the Lord's Test on Friday.
Former wicketkeeper batter Dinesh Karthik was in awe of England tearaway Jofra Archer's "mouth-watering" over, which was "full of drama" during the second day of the third Test against India at the 'Home of Cricket', Lord's, on Friday.
