England announce squad for Lord's Test against India, add pacer Gus Atkinson to the side

England have announced their 16-man squad for the third Test against India at Lord's, with Gus Atkinson's inclusion being the only change for the crunch game. Atkinson, who has taken 55 wickets in just 12 matches for England, has been one of the bowlers of the post-Anderson-Broad era and the hosts desperately missed his services in the first two matches. The announcement came minutes after England suffered a 336-run loss in the second Test at Edgbaston, Birmingham, and it appears that Atkinson will be drafted straight into the XI.
