Ananya Lohia , Delhi - India pacer Kranti Gaud created history by becoming the first woman to earn a place on the Lord's Test Honours Board after a sensational five-wicket haul against England in the one-off Test.
The 22-year-old returned with career-best figures of 5 for 37, bowling England out for 170 and handing India a crucial 115-run first-innings lead. Gaud said earning a place on the iconic Lord's Honours Board was a dream come true and dedicated the achievement to her family, adding that every cricketer dreams of claiming a five-wicket haul at the historic venue.
Gaud credited the seam-friendly English conditions for her success and described the dismissal of England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt as the turning point of her spell. With India extending their overall lead to 269 runs by stumps on Day Two, the visitors tightened their grip on the match and moved closer to a memorable victory.
Kranti Gaud's historic spell not only secured her place in Lord's folklore but also put India firmly in control, making it a landmark moment for Indian women's cricket.
