IND Vs ENG: Team India has won the Lord's Test against England. The tension between Indian and English cricketers during the second Test was not just limited to the pitch. Team India now seems to be embroiled in a new controversy after the Lord's Test. It has surfaced in English media that some On-bench Indian players, who were returning from the field to their dressing room, refused to give way to pacer Ollie Robinson, who was on his way to bat after team England were reduced to 90/7 on the fifth and final day on Monday.

In a report published in an English newspaper 'The Guardian', it was stated that when Robinson was coming down the stairs of the pavilion, some On-bench Indian players in tracksuits were returning to the pavilion after giving drinks on the field. Robinson stopped and waited for them to move aside.

According to the report, Indian players did not step aside. Robinson waited and so did they. Eventually, they rub each other in an 'awkward' way. The whole incident hardly lasted for a few seconds.

Tensions between the two teams has increased:

The first Test between India and England did not see any controversy. But on the third day of the Lord's Test, Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah attacked England pacer James Anderson with a short delivery. After that, the tension between the two teams increased considerably as the players clashed. The differences between Indian captain Virat Kohli and Anderson increased as the war of words between the players reached its peak.

Team India players looked in an attacking mood even after winning the match. Team India players looked quite angry as they celebrated their victory. However, the third Test is expected to be calmer than the second one.

India is currently holding the lead of 1-0 in this series of 5 test matches. The third match of the series between India and England is set to begin on August 25.
