The fourth day of the Test being played between India and England in ‘The Oval’ was affected due to rain. Due to rain, the match had to be stopped before the scheduled time. At the end of the day, England had 339 runs for 6 wickets. On the fifth day, England will need 35 runs to win, while if Chris Woakes does not come to bat due to injury, India would need 3 wickets.

England started the fourth day by 50 runs at the loss of 1 wicket. In the first session, England lost the wicket of Ben Docket and Oli Pope quickly. After this, Joe Root and Harry Brook strengthened the team’s position by sharing 195 runs for the fourth wicket.

Harry Brook got a life from Siraj on 19 runs. He took advantage of that and scored his 10th Test century. Brook scored 111 runs off 98 balls. When the team’s score was 301, he was dismissed as the fourth batsman. Bethel was dismissed for 5 runs. As the sixth wicket, Joe Root was dismissed for 105 runs in 152 balls. This was his 39th century in the Test.

Jamie Smith 2 and Jamie overton are unbeaten at zero at the crease. Krishna, famous for India, has taken 3 wickets, Siraj 2 and Akash Deep has taken one wicket.

Earlier, Team India’s second innings was reduced to 396 runs. After the century of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar played a half-century innings of 53-53 runs and took the team’s score to 396 runs.

England took the lead of 23 runs for 247 runs in response to 224 runs of India’s first innings. In this way, England got a target of 374 to win this match.

Former England captain Nasir Hussain termed the proposal of Ben Stokes to finish the fourth Test early as Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar to call Harry Brook’s decision to bring Brook into the bowling attack as ‘uninterrupted’. Hussain said that Jadeja and Sundar were entitled to their centuries.

Hussain told ‘Sky Sports’, “I had no problem with this (Jadeja and Sundar’s batting). England seemed to be a problem with this. They were a little tired, the bowlers were tired so they wanted to leave the field, but both the players worked hard to reach 80 and 90 runs and they wanted to score a century in the Test match.

He said, “Stokes in the end did not need to show Brook bowling and shown it uninterrupted. We give much importance to these things. He played well and the entire credit goes to India.

When Cheteshwar Pujara asked Washington Sundar the same question, he postponed the matter. Sundar said on ‘Geographstar’, “I think everyone saw what happened on TV and they all enjoyed it.”

Former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar believed that the Indian batsman had the right to continue the game accordingly. He said on ‘Geographstar’, “I think Ben Stokes finally behaved like a bad child.” He said, “I would like to see what England would have been if his two batsmen were close to the Test century?”

At the end of the first day of the Test being played at Old Trafford with England, the Indian team scored 264 runs at the loss of 4 wickets. Both Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur are at the crease after scoring 19-19 runs.

England won the toss and decided to bowl first. Both Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul gave a strong start to the Indian team by sharing 94 runs for the first wicket, but both failed to play big innings. Rahul was dismissed for 46 and Jaiswal for 58 runs.

Sai Sudarshan, who was included in the playing XI in place of Karun Nair, also had a chance to play a big innings but was dismissed for 61 runs. Captain Shubman Gill was dismissed for 12 runs.

Before the Test match, there was a question about Rishabh Pant’s injury. Pant was included in the playing XI. He came to bat and was also playing well. However, Pant, who was playing 37 runs off 48 balls, had to go out of the field due to an injury to the right leg.

Both Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur are unbeaten on 19-19 runs at the crease. There has been a partnership of 29 runs between the two. When the game starts on the second day, both of them will be monitored.

Ravindra Jadeja has been fantastic as a batsman in this series. He had almost won India in Lord’s Test on his own. When the game of the second day starts, Team India Management will expect a big innings from them. Shardul can also bat. At the same time, Washington Sundar also has the ability to play big innings.

How much will India’s score be in the first innings, it will depend on the performance of these three players on the second day. For England, captain Ben Stokes took 2, Liam Dawson and Chris Woakes took 1-1 wickets.

Indian fast bowler Mohammad Siraj told whether fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will play in the fourth Test match starting in Manchester from Wednesday. Given the workload of Bumrah, before the series started in the team management, it was decided that this fast bowler would play only three matches in the five -match Test series.

This news is a great relief news for those Indian fans, who were saddened by the injuries of fast bowlers Akash Deep and Arshdeep Singh. Due to the injured players, the Indian team had to call Anshul Kamboj as a cover.

India is 1-2 behind in the five-match series, in such a situation, he naturally went to Bumrah, which is being handled carefully and will play only in three Tests. Bumrah played the first and third Test matches and India suffered defeat in both matches. Now Team India is expected to return to the important fourth Test match.

Siraj said in a press conference on Monday, “Jassi Bhai will play, as far as I know.” He said about his fellow fast bowler, “Akashdeep has a problem in the waist, he bowled today and will now see the physio, the combination is changing, but we need to bowl in good areas. The plan is simple, bowling in good areas only.”

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Monday confirmed that all -rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy was out of the remaining matches of the series due to left knee injury.

Nitish, who did not play in the first Test, who played in the second and third Tests, will return home. This all -rounder did not perform well in Birmingham, but he contributed significantly to both bat and ball in Lord’s. In his absence, the way for the return of Shardul Thakur, who played the first Test, may open.

At the same time, left -arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh was injured while bowling on the nets in a training session at Bekenham and was out of the fourth Test. The medical team of BCCI is monitoring their progress.

India Lost Third Test Against England: The hosts have won the third match of the five -match Test series between India and England by 22 runs. With this, England has taken a 2–1 lead in this series. In order to win the third Test, the Indian cricket team got a target of 193 runs, in response to which Team India’s innings was reduced to 170 runs on the fifth day.

England bowlers were completely dominated in India’s second innings. The Indian team had lost four important wickets on the fourth day, chasing the target. On the fifth day, no batsman except Ravindra Jadeja could score in front of the British bowlers. Jadeja tried his best to take the match closer by making an important partnership with the lower -order batsmen after the main batsmen were dismissed soon.

Jadeja remained unbeaten on 181 balls patiently by scoring 61 runs, but he could not get enough support at the other end. Despite this, players like Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj showed a great passion to stay at the crease by playing 54 and 30 balls respectively. However, Mohammad Siraj finally became very unfortunately bowled off Shoaib Bashir’s ball and India’s innings ended at 170 runs.

Earlier, in the first session of the fifth day, the biggest blow to the Indian team was due to the dismissal of Rishabh Pant, who has carried out the best innings with his brilliant form in this series. Pant, who scored 74 runs in the first innings, was dismissed for just 9 runs in the second innings. He was bowled by Jofra Archer.

After this, KL Rahul was bowled by the captain of the hosts by Ben Stokes and gave a big blow to India’s hope. Rahul scored 39 runs off 58 balls, in which he hit six fours. After this, Jofra Archer did not even let Washington Sundar open the account and caught his catch on his own ball.

After losing seven wickets, Ravindra Jadeja and Nitish Kumar Reddy tried to fulfill the restrained partnership for the 8th wicket for the Indian team. Both showed India’s score to three points, showing defensive games. But just before lunch, Chris Woakes also broke this partnership by getting Nitish caught by Jamie Smith on a personal score of 13 runs.

Reddy scored 13 runs off 53 balls. In this way, the Indian team scored 112 runs in 39.3 overs at the loss of 8 wickets till lunch. After lunch, the Indian batting continued to roam around Ravindra Jadeja. Jadeja also contributed 72 runs in the first innings.

At the same time, captain Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer got 3-3 wickets in the second innings from England. Bridan Cruses got two, Shoaib Bashir and Chris Woakes got 1-1 wickets.

Earlier in this match, both India and England were reduced to the score of 387 runs. England had scored only 192 runs in the second innings and Team India got a target of 193 runs to win.

In the five -match Test series, England won the first and India won the second match. The Indian team has lagged behind 1-2 after losing the match in Lord’s.

The Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy is running on a 1–1 par. The third Test of the series starts from July 10 at Lord’s. England captain Ben Stokes has warned India before the third Test. Stokes said that the England team will go to Lord’s to give India a tough competition.

Ben Stokes said, “Looking at the level of both teams, it is expected that this series will be balanced. Both teams will have to face ups and downs. It has always been a series in which there have been ups and downs and the results have been shocking.”

Stokes said, “We were victorious in the headingley, while they won in the second Test. When two good teams play against each other, you get to see it. I don’t think we can take an edge over anyone. We respect our rivals, no matter what it is.

England won the first Test played in Headingley by 5 wickets, achieving the target of 371 runs. This was England’s second largest chase on the home ground. India conquered the second Test played in Edgbaston by 336 runs on the basis of Shubman Gill’s brilliant batting.

England announced their playing XI on Wednesday for the Lord’s Test. Fast bowler Jofra Archer has returned to the Test team after 4 years. Josh Tong has been excluded. Archer has taken 42 wickets in 13 Tests for England.

On the return of Jofra Archer, Captain Stokes said, “I think it is fantastic for English fans, not only is it great for Archer. He took a long time to return. The way he has dealt with injuries, he is very praiseworthy. He is very good to see him back to see his back.

India vs england 3rd test: Fast bowler Akash Deep’s family members have greeted him before the start of the third Test match between India and England from July 10. His mother hopes that his son will take 10 wickets again in the match.

Akash Deep’s family members, while talking to ‘PTI video’ on Monday, praised him and also hoped that he would once again repeat his brilliant performance.

Akashdeep took a total of 10 wickets in the Edgbaston Test while performing tremendously. Thanks to his performance, India managed to equal one in the five-Test series with a huge win of 336 runs.

This fast bowler, who represented Bengal in domestic cricket, dedicated his performance to his sister Akhand Jyoti Singh, who is struggling with cancer.

Akhand Jyoti said, “Akash has dedicated the biggest achievement of his life to me. I am very proud and happy. He has really made the whole country proud. He is the youngest of all siblings but still he takes care of me. When I was undergoing treatment at a hospital in Lucknow and she (Akash Deep) was here, he used to come to the hospital daily to see me. He said that after the historic victory, Akash called him.

In the message sent to your brother before the Lord’s Test match, Akhand Jyoti Singh said, ‘Keep performing like this.’ Laduma Devi, mother of Akash Deep, originally from Sasaram, Bihar, said that Akash started playing cricket since childhood. She said that her husband was a teacher and he used to ask Akash not to play cricket but Akash used to play cricket by hiding the most. While wishing her son, Laduma Devi said, ‘Take 10 wickets.’

Akash Deep’s brother -in -law Nitesh Kumar Singh said, ‘Akash Deep is very close to me and he used to share almost everything with me. He was smart in studies. His inclination was towards cricket and he was devoted to it. Wherever he plays, he would perform very well everywhere. Based on his performance, he was selected in Team India.

Singh also hoped that Akashdeep would perform very well in the upcoming Test match at Lord’s.

Akashdeep, while speaking to Cheteshwar Pujara on ‘Jio Hotstar’, dedicated this memorable performance to his cancer -affected sister. The emotional Akash Deep had said, “Whenever there was a ball in my hand, his (sister Akhand Jyoti Singh) picture would come in my mind. She has been struggling with cancer for the last two months. She will be very happy with my performance and this will make a smile to her face.

In the absence of India’s strike bowler Jasprit Bumrah, Akashdeep, who came as a partner of Mohammad Siraj in the second Test against England, took a total of 10 wickets in the entire match and registered his name in history.

India vs england: Former captain of the Indian cricket team Sourav Ganguly has said that even after winning the Birmingham Test, nothing can be said about the result of the series. There are 3 matches left, which will decide the results.

Sourav Ganguly, who witnessed victory in India’s Birmingham Test, has returned home. Talking to the media, he praised the performance of the Indian team. Also said that the team will perform well in the next matches. But, there are three matches left in the series, so nothing can be said about the result.

Ganguly said that the next Test is to be played at Lord’s. I hope that the Indian team will bat well in this match like the last 2 matches. Also, I hope that the team will also be able to take 20 wickets, so that it will be easy to win.

The former captain said that Jasprit Bumrah will also come in the team in the next Test. This will make our bowling even stronger and we will be able to take 20 wickets of England easily.

Jasprit Bumrah was part of the first Test of the series played in Hendigley. He also took 5 wickets in the first innings. However, he was rested under the Workload Management in the Birmingham Test.

Siraj and Akash Deep did not let the shortage of Bumrah in the Birmingham Test and played a memorable role in giving the team a big victory. Siraj took a total of 10 wickets in the match including 6 in the first innings and Akash Deep in the second innings.

Ganguly has been among the most successful batsmen and captains of Indian cricket. Under the captaincy of Ganguly, India started the process of winning the Test abroad.

India vs england second test: Former India fast bowler Varun Aaron has criticized the strategy under which England have used their bowlers in the ongoing Test match in Edgbaston. Aaron said that if India bowls accurately, England could be in trouble.

On Jio Hotstar, Aaron said, “England’s bowling shows a lack of quality plan. To create pressure you need a strong field but, England lose easy singles from the beginning. This makes the batsman set easily on the crease.”

Aaron said, “You get wickets by making continuous pressure for a long time. England did not do so. It is too early to say, but if India corrects its bowling, England may be in a serious crisis, not only this match, but in the entire series.”

Varun said, “From the perspective of England, there was hardly any fielder on the catching position. In Test cricket, if a batsman sees the fielder in the nearest catching area, he has to be careful. But England did not make such pressure.”

He said that for example you take Shoaib Bashir. He bowled around the wicket, but, as an off -spinner, you need at least one slip fielder. He was not there either. Because of this, Shubman Gill sometimes went ahead and sometimes played shots like reverse sweep.

The second day the Indian team batted with the discipline and patience, the former fast bowler praised him.

Aaron said, “Shubman Gill shared an important partnership of 114 runs for the sixth wicket with Ravindra Jadeja and the seventh wicket with Washington Sundar. The batsmen were fully controlled during these partnerships. Jadeja and Gill not only saved the wickets in the first session but also scored fast.”

Let me tell you that in the first two sessions of the second day, India lost only two wickets as Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar.

In the Test being played in Edgbaston, England won the toss and invited the Indian team to bat. India scored 587 runs in the first innings with captain Shubman Gill’s 269, Ravindra Jadeja’s 89 and Yashasvi Jaiswal’s 87 runs.
