Indians with Test Centuries at Lord's Cricket Stadium: India has equalled the five-match Test series being played against England for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy at 1-1. India had to face defeat in Leeds but bounced back in Edgbaston and Team India made a record of its biggest win by a run margin abroad by a margin of 336 runs. Now the third Test of the series is to be played between the two teams from July 10 at the historic Lord's Cricket Ground in London, which both the teams will be seen putting in their best efforts to win.

The Lord's Stadium is very special and is also called the 'Mecca of Cricket'.
