Lord Jaddu! Team India Hail MVP Jadeja for Valiant Effort in Third Test
INDIA, JUL 18 – Gautam Gambhir praised Ravindra Jadeja's patient 61-run innings that nearly secured victory for India despite criticism of his slow scoring during the Lord's Test, where India lost by 22 runs.
- India lost the third Test against England at Lord's on July 18, 2025, by 22 runs despite Ravindra Jadeja's unbeaten 61 off 181 balls.
- India chased a modest target of 193 but struggled due to a slow pitch and soft ball, which slowed the scoring rate and led to early wickets.
- Jadeja entered at number seven and built crucial partnerships of 35 runs with Jasprit Bumrah and 23 runs with Mohammed Siraj, who both resisted well before dismissals.
- Head coach Gautam Gambhir praised Jadeja's fighting effort as "absolutely brilliant," while captain Shubman Gill called him one of India's most valuable players.
- Despite Jadeja's resilience, India suffered a narrow loss but aims to level the series starting July 23 at Manchester in the fourth Test.
