    India Rescue a Draw and England Get MAD - 4th Test Review
    Jul 28 2025
    After England scored a mammoth 669 to take a commanding lead and leave India 0-2 on Day 4, all thoughts turned to an England win. But a fantastic display from India's batters on a flat Old Trafford pitch saw India home to a comfortable draw. Some late shenanigans gave us something to talk about, however, as Jadeja and Sundar wound up weary England by turning down an early finish to reach their centuries. 1 test to go and the trophy remains up for grabs!

    England Seize Control - Fourth Test Day 2
    Jul 24 2025
    England were all over on Day 2 of the fourth Test between India and England in the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy Test series. India started the day in a good position but were unable to capitalise, as poor cricket and good play from England wrapped the innings up, despite a cameo from Rishabh Pant. Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett then took the game away from India, scoring quickly and brutally as they ran the score up to almost 200.
