Lord's Test: Jasprit Bumrah set for return to India's playing XI, Jofra Arches back in England squad

London/IBNS: India's premier fast Jasprit Bumrah is all set to return to India's playing XI in the third Test against England after he was rested in the previous match to manage his workload.

Bumrah, whose absence was not greatly felt in the second Test due to brilliant bowling by Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj, is likely to replace Prasidh Krishna, who failed to impress with the ball in the first two matches.

On the other hand, England have already announced the inclusion of Jofra Archer to their squad.

Archer, who replaced Josh Tongue in the playing XI, will be representing England in a Test match for the first time in more than four years.

Not revealing his team's combination for the third Test, India's vice-captain Rishabh Pant said, "I think the options are still open. The discussions are still going on..."

"Sometimes the colour of the wicket changes and moisture becomes less within two days of a Test match. We have to take a call seeing how the wicket is going to play," he added.

The five-match series is currently balanced at 1-1 after India scripted history in the second Test by registering their maiden win at Edgbaston in Birmingham by 336 runs.

The Indian batters- particularly captain Shubman Gill- are in sublime form. Gill, who scored a double hundred and a hundred in the two innings at Edgbaston, amassed 430 runs in the second Test.

The third Test will be played at the iconic Lord's Cricket Ground in London on July 10-14.
