England batter Joe Root, after scoring his 37th Test century at Lord’s, proposed allowing three ball change challenges per innings to counter issues with the Dukes ball. He also surpassed Rahul Dravid’s record for most Test catches by a non-wicketkeeper.
Despite New Zealand losing four wickets in the morning session, Ravindra, whose family is from Bengaluru, picked up the pace with an impressive century featuring 11 fours and two sixes. The 21-year-old's century marks his second in Test cricket, following his maiden hundred against South Africa earlier this year.
