England Posts Record 387 at Lord's as Barar Returns Empty‑Handed

England won the toss and, after losing three wickets, compiled a historic 387 runs at Lord’s, the highest ODI total ever on the ground. The opening pair of Ben Duckett and Jacob Bethell put on a 192‑run stand from 181 balls, with Bethell scoring 91. Duckett then joined Jo Root for a 101‑run partnership that took the score to 293, before Duckett’s own knock of 141 off 135 balls, featuring a six and 18 fours, propelled the innings forward. England’s middle order, including captain Harry Brook and Jos Buttler, added vital runs, while India’s bowlers Krishna and Prince Yadav managed two and one wickets respectively.
