Siraj could only watch as it hit the leg stump and disloged his stumps as the England players erupted in celebration. The disappointment was clear on the India pacer's face as a billion Indian dreams were shattered with just one wicket at the Lord's Cricket Ground. Most unluckymoment of the cricket. Mohmmad siraj unlucky out. #INDvsENG #INDvsENGTest #RAVINDRAJADEJA #siraj #cricket — RED BULL (@RedBullXcricket) July 14, 2025 Ravindra Jadeja's heroic effort went in vain as England edged out India by 22 runs on the fifth and final day of a wildly fluctuating third Test with skipper Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer playing pivotal roles. d thus go 2-1 up in the five-match series. The day started with India requiring 135 runs and England having to pick six wickets after setting the visitors a 193-run target. The hosts got four Indian batters out before lunch but were made to work hard for the remaining two wickets in the last two sessions. India were finally all out for 170. Archer (3/55) and Stokes (3/48) were the chief architects of the English victory, even as Jadeja battled hard for India with a gritty unbeaten 61. India lost the big wickets of Rishabh Pant (9), KL Rahul (39), Washington Sundar (0), and Nitish Reddy (13) in the first session to hand England the advantage. Lead pacer Archer sent Pant's off stump for a walk with a jaffa that straightened after landing on the perfect length. Skipper Stokes rose to the occasion as he trapped KL Rahul in front of the wicket, giving the momentum back to England. The on-field umpire was not convinced by the England team's loud appeal for an lbw, prompting Stokes to go upstairs and the decision came in his favour. Jofra was on the money consistently this morning and pulled off a brilliant catch off his own bowling to send back Sundar and Chris Wokes, and then had Washinton Sundar edge one to the keeper. Their efforts paved the way for England victory.

Horner: Verstappen Intends to Stay with Red Bull Amid Rumors
RED BULL team boss Christian Horner on Friday suggested that despite 'all the noise', four-time world champion Max Verstappen is hoping to remain with the team next year. The 27-year-old Dutchman has been heavily linked with a move to Mercedes next season, with some Italian media reporting that Verstappen had accepted an offer. Speaking during an official news conference at the British Grand Prix, Horner conceded that exit clauses existed in the Dutchman's contract, which runs to the end of 2028, but added that he felt Red Bull were in a 'fairly comfortable' position. 'There's obviously an awful lot of people talking about it, but what's most important is the relationship between the driver and the team,' said a defensive Horner. 'There's an agreement that defines that, as well, and everybody's very clear on where we're at. 'Max has been with Red Bull since the very start of his career. All his successes come in Red Bull Racing cars. He's a big part of our team and he has a great deal of faith in the team and the people around him. 'So, whilst there's always going to be speculation and noise, I think we all sit fairly comfortable with where we're at and what the situation is. We can't control the narrative of others but internally, we know where we're at.' Asked if he could confirm that Verstappen would be a Red Bull driver in 2026, when a new set of technical regulations are to be introduced, Horner stressed it was his and the driver's intention, but was unable to be categoric. 'Look, the contracts between the drivers and the teams are always going to remain confidential/' he said. 'With any driver's contract, there is an element of a performance mechanism, and of course that exists within Max's contract. 'His intention is that he will be there and driving for us in 2026. It's inevitable that he's of huge interest to any other team in the pit lane. 'Ignoring the noise' 'Actually, probably, George (Russell, Mercedes driver) triggered all this speculation, probably trying to leverage his own situation and force clarity, which you can understand because he's driven a very good season as well this year. 'But inevitably, there will always be speculation about it. I think the most important thing is the clarity that exists between Max and the team -- and that's very clear.' Horner repeated that Verstappen's contract runs until 2028. 'He's made it quite clear that he would like to finish his career in a Red Bull car from start to finish,' he stressed. 'I think that's quite special and unique for him. That's what we're focused on. We're just ignoring the noise and focusing on the areas we know where we need to improve and how to do that.' Horner added that 2026 was sure to be a transformational year with no guarantees. 'It's the biggest rule-change in F1 probably in the last 50 years, where both chassis and power unit are being introduced at the same time,' he said. 'Nobody, with hand on heart, can know what the pecking order is going to be. 'So there are no guarantees that jumping into a Mercedes car would automatically be a better proposition.'
