After a heartbreaking 22-run defeat in a nail-biting third Test at Lord’s, the Shubman Gill-led Indian side will return to action in Manchester, Old Trafford cricket ground, aiming to bounce back in the 4th Test starting today.
The visitors will try and level the five-match Anderson-Tendulkar series to take the game to the final encounter. With a brief but much-needed break behind them, India will be eager to regroup and take the fight to England in the fourth Test.

The series so far has seen plenty of momentum shifts. England clinched the opening Test at Headingley by five wickets, while India responded strongly with a win at Edgbaston to draw level. However, England once again took the lead with their victory at Lord’s, going up 2-1 in the contest.
India now face a tough challenge, not just from the opposition, but also due to injury setbacks that have forced changes in their squad. Nitish Kumar Reddy has been ruled out of the remaining matches, while Arshdeep Singh will miss the Manchester Test, both sidelined due to injuries. Adding to the concerns, pacer Akash Deep is also unavailable for the fourth Test due to a groin issue.
Meanwhile, England have confirmed their playing XI for the Manchester Test, opting for just one change. Liam Dawson comes into the side, replacing Shoaib Bashir, who has been ruled out of the remainder of the series with a finger injury sustained during the third Test.
