Vintage ties and selfies at Lord's

Great weather, good pitch, strong start from the home side, superb fightback from the visitors. Lord's. The perfect day

18-Jul-2014•Sudhindra Prasad

Rahane quietly bedding in as India's No. 6

Tough enough to score crucial runs, prepared for innings that don't have proper structure, content with not cashing in on flat ones, Ajinkya Rahane could be just the man for India

17-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga at Lord's

England squander golden opportunity

They wasted the new ball, they dropped chances and they reverted to the type of tactics that made little use of the sort of pitch of which England seamers should dream

17-Jul-2014•George Dobell at Lord's

India's rearguard and Anderson's records

Some key numbers at the end of the first day's play of the Lord's Test between India and England.

17-Jul-2014•Bishen Jeswant

Dhoni implacable on Anderson

James Anderson has riled many opponents in an illustrious Test career, but when it came to his disagreement with Ravindra Jadeja, India's captain MS Dhoni saw a chance to make a stand

16-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga

Spat provides useful distraction for England

Alastair Cook, the Lord's groundsman, and Simon Kerrigan have all been ignored while the spat between James Anderson and Ravindra Jadeja takes the headlines

Being on the Beeb and other stories

In which our correspondent is remembered by a former international cricketer, befriends a librarian, and talks horses with Ravindra Jadeja

16-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga

Stuart Binny set to play again

India's preparations at the nets, coupled with their policy of not dropping a player after just one game, suggest that Stuart Binny could keep his place in the team at Lord's

15-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga at Lord's

Bigger concerns for England than Lord's pitch

While the pitch took most of the blame at Trent Bridge, at Lord's England will need to get more controlling overs from their spinners. The reality is there is no quick fix

15-Jul-2014•Andrew McGlashan at Lord's

Seamers give England edge, toss vital

Stats indicate that England's fast bowlers have used the conditions at Lord's better in recent times, and that teams batting first are at an advantage

15-Jul-2014•Shiva Jayaraman

Dull match, lovely stats

So what if Trent Bridge was a snoozefest? We've got all these numbers, haven't we?

15-Jul-2014•Andy Zaltzman

India out-reversed on dry pitch

England consigned India to two reverse-swing-induced collapses whereas India bowlers mainly relied on the new ball's movement and uneven bounce by hitting the deck hard

15-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga

Burnout worries after deathly slog

The opening Test ended with the levity of Alastair Cook taking a Test wicket in a match where his captaincy showed encouraging signs but England should be assisted more by their system rather than hindered

13-Jul-2014•George Dobell at Trent Bridge

Binny's selection does not prove trivial

Why had Stuart Binny been picked in this Test? It was probably not with a match-saving innings in mind, but that's what he produced just when India were threatening to topple apart

13-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga at Trent Bridge

A prolific debut at No. 8, and Anderson levels with Trueman

Stats highlights from the Trent Bridge Test, a match in which all kinds of lower-order batting feats were eclipsed

13-Jul-2014•S Rajesh

England could turn to Kerrigan at Lord's

After a hard slog on a lifeless wicket and similarly docile conditions expected at Lord's, England may recall the Lancashire spinner to inject a bit of bite into their bowling attack

12-Jul-2014•George Dobell at Trent Bridge

Tail-enders overshadow top order

James Anderson and Joe Root put together 198 runs and picked up a slew of records along the way, including the most runs made by a final-wicket pair

12-Jul-2014•Bishen Jeswant

Dhoni's instincts fail him

Like George Costanza once did, India's captain went against his normal ahead of the first Test but on the fourth day, with a match still winnable for India, he went back to a familiar game plan

12-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga at Trent Bridge

Ishant's rewards for the dirty work

Ishant Sharma is an odd sort of 'attack leader', averaging over 37 in Test cricket and not given the new ball, but extracting England's middle order on a docile pitch showed why he is persisted with

11-Jul-2014•Sidharth Monga at Trent Bridge

Lack of leaders a hurdle to England revival

In a batting order containing four or five relatively inexperienced cricketers, it is not obvious who in the dressing room can revitalise England
