That brings us to the end of what turned out to be a fascinating passage of Test cricket, one that begin with KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma batting brilliantly after being put in, Joe Root dishing out yet another masterclass, India looking almost down and out after losing Pant early on the fifth day with a less a shade over 150, and then going on to win from that position thanks to a lower order batting masterclass by Shami and Bumrah and the Indian pace unit, led by the efforts of a young man from Hyderabad playing his first match at the Home of Cricket, sharing the 20 wickets between themselves. Test cricket rarely gets any better.

We hope the two teams will maintain similar intensity for the remainder of the series with three games remaining. Remember, this series is following the same pattern so far as 2014 — a draw followed by an Indian victory at Lord’s. Kohli will hope to change the script this time with his team high on momentum after a 151-run demolishing. For now, it’s time for us to bid you all good night!

KL Rahul, Player of the Match: (When asked about name on Honours' Board) "I've been looking at it every morning to see if they've put it on permanently. They haven't - it's still a temporary piece of paper. To put on 360 on the board was really crucial, very happy. Been here for a couple of months now and been working really hard on our skills. Even in the first game at Trent Bridge the batsmen have shown a lot of discipline. That's what you expect with two competitive teams: great skills, and a few words as well. We don't mind some banter."

Virat Kohli, India captain: Virat Kohli: Super proud of the whole team, the way we struck to our plans after being put in. The pitch didn’t offer much, first day was most challenging, and after that it was difficult for the bowlers. We thought 60 overs to go, we could have a crack at the result. I think the bowlers were just outstanding. The tension on the field helped and motivated us. Just to applaud what Jasprit and Shami did. Takes a lot of heart to play under those circumstances, and we wanted to let them know. They got charged up thereafter and got two early wickets. When we were most successful, our lower order was concentrating. When they walk out to bat, they believe they can stay on and bat. We know how priceless those runs are. I’ve been part of the winning Test last time under MS. That was pretty special. Back then we had put them under pressure on Day 4 itself. This one, in a matter of 60 overs, is special. What happened on the field really charged us up. It was more the case of what’s the number of overs we’re comfortable with. We decided 60’s our mark. Crucial breakthroughs with the new ball were the right start for us. We feed off the energy of the crowd as well. It’s the best gift we can give to the people of India and the Indians here as well. We’re not going to sit on our laurels after this match and sit easy. We’ve got three more matches after this. If anything, this will charge us up more.

Joe Root, England skipper: Unfortunately we couldn't quite manage to see out today which is very frustrating. But there's still a lot of cricket to be played in the series. We went from a very strong position where we looked like we would win the game to losing. More than anything, just got a few things wrong. That partnership, they did pretty well. But lots of things I'd do differently if given an opportunity. Mo's come back as well. There are things we can take away from this game. 

There was Gabba 2021. And now we have Lord's just a few months later. Two monumental victories which certainly will rank among India's greatest in the sport. All testament to the magnificent work done by Kohli, Shastri and the rest of the management in instilling belief in this team that nothing's impossible, no matter how dire the situaition. Few would've given India a chance after Rishabh Pant's early dismissal today. The odds on India going on to win from that position, that too after declaring after lunch, would've perhaps been the same as Leicester City winning the 2015-16 Premier League. This surely is a victory that, along with the one at Gabba, will go on to define this generation.

After 51.5 overs,England 120/10 ( Mark Wood 0 , )

Siraj gets rid of the danger man Buttler with a lovely length delivery that nips away a tad and gets a faint outside nick, the batsman wasting no time in waiting for the umpire’s call and walking back instantly. James Anderson is the last man to walk out for England and lasts just three deliveries, getting bowled for a duck. India win by 151 runs!

India register a sensational day in office on the fifth day to manufacture a comeback of epic proportions. As a result, they collect only their third Test win at Lord’s, one that gives them the well-deserved 1-0 lead in the five-match rubber!

BOWLED EM! Siraj gets the last man Anderson as India script an emphatic 151-run victory at Lord's to go 1-0 up in the five-match series! Siraj knocks the top of Anderson's off stump as the England No 11 is nowhere close to the line while defending, and the Hyderabadi seamer finishes with figures of 4/32 as England are bowled out for 120

OUT! Siraj gets Buttler! India get rid of the dangerman, and are on the verge of registering a famous win at Lord's. Ball nips away just a tad and gets a faint bit of the outside edge, with Pant doing the rest behind the stumps. Buttler doesn't even wait for the umpire's decision and starts walking already. ENG 120/9

Bumrah continues with India’s anxiety over the breakthrough increasing with each passing over. Bumrah however, delivers on that front as he traps Robinson leg-before with a superbly disguised slower delivery from round the wicket. India though, have to use one of their three remaining reviews to overturn umpire Illingworth’s original decision of not out. Mark Wood comes out to bat next with India needing just two more wickets to win with nine overs left.

OUT! Superb use of the slower ball by Bumrah against Robinson — someone who had used a lot of slower balls himself earlier today — to trap him leg-before. Initially adjudged not out by umpire Illingworth, and Kohli goes for the review right away. Pitches in line — the most important factor when bowling round the wicket to the right-hander, and the ball just about straightens and hits Robinson on the thigh in front of middle and off. Three reds on HawkEye, and England are eight down! ENG 120/8
