India's top batsmen, skipper Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, and Cheteshwar Pujara don't have a flattering record at the venue, where the slope can have a great impact and affect a batsman's stance. Kohli, Pujara, and Rahane have played two Tests each at Lord's. While No. 4 batsman Kohli averages 16.25, No. 3 batsman Pujara averages 22.25. Rahane is a shade better with 34.75 thanks to a century he scored in 2014.

India and their frontline batsmen will have history against them when they take on England in the second Test here at Lord's from Thursday.
