Earlier, rain brought an early Tea break just as Shardul Thakur sparked a turnaround for India, reviving their hopes with key wickets. However, the experienced duo of Joe Root and Ben Stokes now stand between India and a dramatic comeback. Thakur revived India’s hopes with a crucial double strike - Ben Duckett and Harry Brook, putting a dent in England’s chase and momentarily shifting the momentum back in the visitors’ favour. Prasidh Krishna got rid of Ollie Pope and Zak Crawley in quick succession and dented England’s momentum, allowing India to claw their way back into the contest and reignite hopes of a turnaround. Ben Duckett reached a superb century, showcasing composure and aggression in equal measure, as India’s bowlers toiled without success. Despite trying multiple combinations, the visitors couldn’t find a breakthrough, with the opening stand continuing to frustrate them and put England in a strong position. Zak Crawley notched up a well-paced fifty, while Jasprit Bumrah remained ineffective after the lunch interval, as England maintained complete control of the chase. Ben Duckett appears completely unfazed by the threat of Jasprit Bumrah, handling India’s pace spearhead with confidence. Displaying solid technique and sharp judgment, the left-hander has looked in control against Bumrah’s variations, showing no signs of pressure despite the bowler's reputation and the challenging conditions. Ben Duckett (64*) and Zak Crawley (42*) remained rock solid at the crease, guiding England to 117/0 at Lunch on Day 5 in Leeds. Chasing 471, the hosts now require 254 more runs to pull off a remarkable victory against India (471 & 364). Jasprit Bumrah completed his opening spell of the day without success, as the English openers remained cautious and steady under the overcast skies. Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley have resumed England's pursuit of 371, with India banking on Jasprit Bumrah to deliver an early breakthrough and break the opening stand.
The first match of the inaugural Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy has the potential to go down in the history books as an absolute classic, with both teams dreaming of famous Day 5 victories. The equation is very simple for both teams: India start with a win if they can take ten English wickets before England can score 350 runs. It is all to play for at the famous Headingley in Leeds which has seen so many famous finishes with its storied past. Before play begins on Day 5, the energy in the air is an expectant one, as nervous fans, Indian and English alike and even neutrals anticipate that this one will go right down to the wire.
England are 21/0 overnight, preventing any early damage in a brief 6-over burst from India in the fading light of Day 4. Openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett negotiated that tricky phase of play. India won’t be too concerned: Jasprit Bumrah will be refreshed and raring to go with the still-fresh Dukes ball. What Bumrah will need if he wants to lead India to success are contributions from Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj. If India can get these three working in tandem, then memories of the Oval 2021 will resurface, and Shubman Gill, in an impressive captaincy debut thus far, will have the phrase ‘60 overs of Hell’ echoing in his head.
Conversely, England’s inspiration for day 5 will also be found in the recent past. At this venue, in 2019, with Ben Stokes’ late heroics to seal a match in the Ashes. Against this team, at Edgbaston in 2022, Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root stitching together a partnership for the ages en route to England’s largest successful chase ever. Two examples of hauling down totals well in excess of 300, that the team will take a lot of confidence from.
Day 5 will bring plenty of memories of those iconic matches as the match winds down, and there are bound to be plenty of swings of momentum in this game. A couple of quick wickets for India at any stage, and they will feel on top. Any sort of substantial partnership for England, and young Shubman Gill will feel the heat on him in pursuit of this win. Jasprit Bumrah will be his key go-to option, on a deteriorating pitch in what are expected to be overcast conditions, but Bumrah can’t be the only person that Gill can feel comfortable turning towards. England’s ambition will be to hold off Bumrah for as long as possible, as brilliant as he is, and put the pressure back onto the thus-far underperforming players surrounding him.
The table is set for a thrill-a-minute game on the final day of the first match of the series, and the importance cannot be downplayed: both teams have played excellently and stayed alive in this match as a contest. Whoever plays the most consistent good cricket today — and for India, that will mean catching and fielding well, sticking to plans — will likely be the victor. In Test cricket, just the way a match should be decided, coming down to the very last day after four full days of excellence.
