A special innings at the 'Home of Cricket' from then England captain, Graham Gooch. It was the first Test of the series and India started brightly when Kapil Dev bowled Mike Atherton for eight. Gooch should have been gone, when on 36, but Kiran More put down the chance. India would come to rue the missed catch as Gooch plundered 43 fours and three sixes in his 333.

Partnerships of 127 with David Gower, 308 with Allan Lamb, and 192 with Robin Smith gave Gooch the platform for the first ever triple century at Lord's. Manoj Prabhakar finally removed Gooch by bowling him. Gooch, however, was not done for the match and scored 123 from just 113 balls in the second innings to set up the victory.
