    Hero with the ball: James Anderson.

    With weather set fair at Lord’s in London, England could have a big day of first innings batting ahead as they look to put themselves in a strong position to win the second Test and go 2-0 up.

    On Friday, India were bowled out for just 107 as James Anderson (5-20) led the England bowling attack and did most of the damage in swinging conditions in what has been a rain-interrupted Test so far.
