The last test match at the Lord’s was played between England and India in 2021, where the Indian team registered a brilliant win by 151 runs. The pitch at the Lord’s has always been a pace-friendly wicket, and the swing bowlers just love bowling. Moeen Ali took three wickets in the England vs India test, and all the rest were taken by the pacers.
