India vs England Dream11 prediction, 3rd Test match: WTC 2025-27 fantasy tips, playing XI, pitch report – IND vs ENG Test series 2025

India vs England Dream11 prediction: Currently tied 1-1, the five-match Test series will see the 3rd match be played in London at the iconic Lord's stadium. This game will also see the return of pace stars Jofra Archer and Jasprit Bumrah.

England have several issues to address. Zak Crawley’s place remains uncertain amid poor form, while Ben Stokes needs to contribute with the bat rather than rely solely on bold captaincy. With Jofra Archer returning after four years and both Chris Woakes and Brydon Carse heavily burdened, the bowling attack appears stretched. Once again, England may have to lean on Joe Root to bring stability.

As for India, the key decision is whether they will play Kuldeep Yadav. The Lord's pitch could aid pacers early, however, spin will matter as the pitch flattens. The Men in Blue won't want to risk being a bowler short - especially after just two bowlers took 17 wickets in Birmingham. Bumrah's return is vital, but as Headingley showed, even he can be tamed by smart batting.

The India vs England 3rd Test at Lord's begins on July 10, 2025. With Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Rishabh Pant stepping up at crucial moments, India's batting has clicked at the right time. Their bowling unit, led by Siraj, Akash Deep, and Bumrah, has kept England under constant pressure.

England, meanwhile, continue to struggle - both with an inconsistent bowling attack and questionable decision-making. As the series progresses, India look far more composed and assured, heading into this Test as the more confident and settled side.
