During 3rd day of 2nd test at Lord's, James Anderson batting, Jasprit Bumrah bowling - this is surely like the clash of titans - only that both are fast bowlers. So when the two were face to face at Lord's on Day 3, it surely got the crowd and netizens talking.
In the 125 over, Bumrah came into bowl and Anderson was facing him. The Indian pacer was surely frustrated as he was wicketless and he made sure Anderson felt the heat.
So when Bumrah bowled, the ball hit the helmet. While the cath was taken at gully, Bumrah was seen to signal that the ball had touched the glove.
However, Anderson removed his helmet and the physio was soon running out to check on him. India did not take a review. It's was, however, a nasty bouncer, and Anderson knew he was in trouble.
Netizens soon were seen enjoying the fiery showdown between the two bowlers.

Anderson hit on the helmet. Should not be allowed to bowl in second innings for safety reasons. Don't violate human rights. #EngvInd
