Who Will Win Today’s Match? – AI Match Prediction

Both sides are confident going into the 3rd test. India’s dominant showing in the second match and their good record at Lord’s, including the memorable win in 2021, provide them with a slight edge. The return of Jasprit Bumrah further strengthens their pace attack.

England, on the other hand, will look to bounce back with potential changes in their bowling lineup. If their top order fires and Jofra Archer regains rhythm, they’ll be a tough side to beat.
