Day five of the third Test between England and India at Lord's promises a thrilling conclusion, with India needing 135 runs with six wickets in hand to win. After a gripping Day 4, the match hangs in the balance.

England were bowled out for 192 in their second innings, setting India a target of 193. Washington Sundar starred with the ball, taking 4 wickets for 22 runs. Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah supported him with 2 wickets each.

India's chase got off to a shaky start, with the team stumbling to 58-4 at the close of play. Brydon Carse and Ben Stokes bowled with aggression, creating significant problems for the Indian batsmen. Carse picked up two wickets, while Stokes dismissed nightwatchman Akash Deep on the final ball of the day. Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed for a duck, and Shubman Gill only managed to score 6 runs.

KL Rahul remained unbeaten on 33 at the end of the day. He will be joined by Rishabh Pant, who didn't keep wickets due to an injury.

England assistant coach Marcus Trescothick expressed confidence in his team's chances, saying, "Hopefully, we'll get six wickets in the first hour tomorrow". He highlighted the impact of the final hour of play, stating that it was amazing and shifted the momentum in England's favor.

The pitch is offering sharp bounce and variable pace, making batting difficult. The atmosphere is tense, with heated exchanges between players adding to the drama. Stokes appeared to mock Rahul after dismissing Akash Deep, following earlier sarcasm from Gill towards England's openers.
