England had begun the day batting, Woakes and Sam Curran (40) adding some quick runs before the declaration came after Curran's dismissal with England 396-7, a lead of 289.

The threat of rain may have prompted Joe Root's decision to declare but by the time it arrived, Anderson had already struck twice, removing Murali Vijay for his second duck of the game and KL Rahul (10) to take him past 100 Test wickets at Lord's.

When play resumed, Broad took over. The seamer claimed four wickets in the spell from the Pavilion End, including Virat Kohli and Dinesh Karthik in consecutive balls to leave India 61-6.
