England bowler James Anderson believes India "probably still have the edge" in the second Test, after Rory Burns was dismissed late in the day by Mohammed Shami.
After an excellent display from India's openers, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, on day one put them in the driving seat, England fought back on day two.
The early dismissals of Rahul and Ajinkya Rahane was the perfect start for Joe Root's side and they were able to bowl India out for 364, ensuring they only added 88 runs for their last seven wickets.
Anderson took centre stage for England, picking up his 31st five wicket haul in Test matches and his seventh at Lord's.
The 39-year-old also became the oldest English seamer to ever take a five-fer.
With the bat, Dom Sibley and Haseeb Hameed were dismissed cheaply, with Sibley caught at short midwicket for 11 and Hameed's near five-year wait for a Test return ending in a golden duck.
Burns and Root then steadied the ship, sharing an 85-run partnership before Burns was out LBW for 49 shortly before the close of play.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Anderson explained that he thought India were in the driving seat but that England could get "right back in the game" if they were able to get close to India's first-innings total.
"India probably still have the edge but if we can get a couple of big partnerships that gets us right back in the game, especially if we can get near them or past them," Anderson said.
"We are definitely not out of the game but have a lot of hard work to do tomorrow. We have to bat the day tomorrow – that’s how we see the situation. If we can do that we know we will be there or thereabouts."
Anderson was considered an injury doubt for the game after it emerged that he had a quad muscle niggle, but it was not that serious an issue.
When asked how close he was to missing the Test altogether, Anderson replied: "In the end, not very. I am not quite sure how that got out of our group!
"I went for a scan on Wednesday afternoon, just a precautionary one just to check the stiffness in my quad was nothing more than stiffness.
"The scan was fine and that was pretty much it. I bowled on Wednesday afternoon, felt good and that was it."
Anderson's long-time bowling partner Stuart Broad did end up missing the game through injury, after he was ruled out of the remainder of the series.
In his absence, Anderson opened the bowling with Ollie Robinson, who is playing just his third Test.
However, Anderson does not feel as though he has had to shoulder any extra responsibility in Broad's absence.
"I always feel I have responsibility," he said. "I don’t feel an extra responsibility because he is not here. We have got experienced players in the camp.
"Ollie Robinson has not played a huge amount of Test cricket but he has played a decent amount of first-class cricket and knows his game well. I thought he bowled brilliantly in this innings.
"Mark Wood and Sam Curran have also played a lot of international cricket, so I don’t have to do a lot of leading or whatever that means. The responsibility is trying to set the tone with the ball."
