According to the report of British newspaper ‘The Telegraph’, the situation in the pavilion became tense after the end of play on the third day of Lord’s Test. It has been claimed in the report that the players of both the teams had come face to face in the long room.
Actually, in the last session of the third day, Jasprit Bumrah had bowled a lot of bouncers to James Anderson. At the same time, Root returned unbeaten on 180 runs that day. After the end of the day’s play, when the teams came to the long room, there was an argument between Kohli and Joe Root. For this reason, for the next two days, the Indian captain and the rest of the Indian players were very aggressive on the field.
MCC members did not sit in the long room due to Corona
The Lord’s Long Room is usually filled with MCC members during Test matches. However, due to Corona restrictions, members were not allowed to enter the long room. This room was converted into a dining room for both the teams.
Team India can look aggressive in Leeds too
The war of words that started between the two teams in the Lord’s Test. No one should be surprised if he continues in Leeds.
Because Virat Kohli had warned the hosts a day earlier that his team was not one to back down. If the English team teases us, we will not leave them.
However, before the Leeds Test, the attitude of English captain Joe Root was seen to be loose. He said that the English team has learned a lesson from the last match and will not indulge in any debate unnecessarily.
