Lord’s Has Some Crazy Cricket History
England’s impressive Test match legacy at Lord’s gives them real confidence here. Out of 145 Test games, they’ve won 59 matches at Lord’s. That’s a pretty good record for the home team.
Back in 1990, England smashed 653 runs against India at this ground. But Australia got bowled out for just 53 runs here in 1888. These numbers show how crazy cricket can get at Lord’s.

The ground has this weird slope that makes everything interesting. Bowlers and batters both struggle with this unusual surface sometimes. You never know what might happen during a match here.
Weather and Pitch Conditions Help Bowlers
Lord’s weather stays cloudy most of the time during matches. These overcast conditions help fast bowlers swing the ball more. Batsmen find it harder to score runs in such weather.
The pitch at Lord’s usually favors seam bowlers over spin bowlers. Fast bowlers can get extra bounce from this surface easily. This makes batting quite difficult for visiting teams like India.

England might bring Jofra Archer back to bowl at Lord’s. He loves playing on this ground and knows it well. His return would make England’s bowling attack much stronger.
