LONDON (Reuters) -England captain Ben Stokes was named player of the match after taking five wickets in his team’s dramatic 22-run victory over India in the third test at Lord’s as well as scoring 44 and 33 and running out the dangerous Rishabh Pant in a splendid all-round performance.

This was a throwback of a last day when every wicket and run was eked out in front of a near full-house and the tension became unbearable

England has beaten India by 22 runs in the Lord’s test on the fifth and final day and taken a 2-1 lead in their five-test series.
