India opening batter KL Rahul has gifted his autographed jersey to the Lord's Museum. The gesture came following the conclusion of Day 3 (Saturday, July 12) of the third Test against England at the historic Lord’s Cricket Ground in London.

The official Instagram handle of the Indian cricket team shared a video in which the Karnataka batter is seen signing his jersey before handing it over to the museum. Earlier in the match, after the end of Day 2, star pacer Jasprit Bumrah had also contributed to the museum, donating the shoes he wore while claiming his first five-wicket haul at the venue.

Valuable contributions from Rishabh Pant (74) and Ravindra Jadeja (72) helped India post 387 in their first innings, matching England’s total.

In reply, England were two for no loss at the end of Day 3, with Zak Crawley (2) and Ben Duckett (0) seeing out the single over before stumps.


“Perfection of batting” - Former Indian batter heaps high praise on KL Rahul

Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar lavished praise on KL Rahul for his sublime century on Day 3 of the Lord’s Test. In a conversation on ESPNcricinfo, Manjrekar remarked:

“Perfection of batting to be very honest. He hasn't put a foot wrong and even with Jofra Archer coming back into the side and being an opener, facing him with the new ball, it seemed like he had a lot more ability in spare to handle this kind of an attack. He hasn't put a foot wrong and that's been the hallmark of his performances this series.”

Rahul has been in exceptional form in the ongoing ENG-IND 2025 series, scoring 336 runs in five innings with an impressive average of 67.20, including one half-century and two centuries.
