IND vs ENG Highlights, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj went wicketless as England’s openers safely negotiated the final session, reaching 21 without loss at stumps on Day 4 in pursuit of a 371-run target. India’s tailenders offered little resistance following the brilliant centuries from KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant, as the visitors were bowled out for 364, setting England a target of 370. Josh Tongue turned the tide in England’s favour with a stunning triple strike in a single over. KL Rahul fell short of a 150, departing for a well-made 137 after being dismissed by Brydon Carse. Karun Nair soon joined him in the dressing room after scoring just 20. Rishabh Pant becomes the first Indian batter to score centuries in both innings of a Test in England, as his hitting took India to a lead of 304 at tea on day 4. He fell just before the session break, but did his job. ...Read More

 Heading into day four, the first Test match of the newly-anointed Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy feels remarkably balanced. It truly is anyone’s game from here, and depending on how day four goes, it is set up to be a real cracker. India are effectively 96/2, their first innings performance having been whittled down to just a 6-run lead after sloppiness in the field and a slew of missed chances meant England were able to string together strong partnerships. Will India grow to heavily regret those missed chances? If their batting falls apart on day four, almost certainly, their safety net having been untethered by their own hands. But with an in-touch KL Rahul batting on 47* joined by captain Shubman Gill, fresh off a terrific century in the first innings, the hope will be that the team can bat through the majority of the day.

Against this English team, anything short of 250 will almost certainly not be enough, even if the pitch begins to deteriorate. India must look at a score well in excess of 300 to have any sort of run-pressure, and that means that batting at least two of today’s sessions will be integral. On what has been a pretty flat deck so far, that might seem doable. But there was enough bite and venom in this pitch towards the end of play on day three that England’s bowlers will be interested. Both Brydon Carse and Josh Tongue have seemed to settle into a solid rhythm after being a touch expensive on day one, and that means they will be a threat, particularly early in the day. Add to this Ben Stokes and his unorthodox bowling that tends to produce results, and Shoaib Bashir also finding purchase in the pitch, and it’s not that straightforward a question for India.

The hope for the visiting team will be to have the overnight pair take this total closer to 200, before allowing Rishabh Pant to do what he does by playing his typical attacking cricket to push it even further. Of course, that is easier said than done: two early wickets for England, and they will be immediate favourites for the remainder of this match, with a shaky lower middle order to follow. With that in mind, both Rahul and Gill might look to take it easy and very safe early on, to ensure that India’s in-form batters are at the crease when the afternoon session rolls around.

At this point in time, it feels almost as if all three results are equally possible, which means this match is heading towards being a potential classic. But what will decide the direction it swings is how the teams perform in the first session in particular, which will set the gameplan and the tactics for the remainder of this match. It is quickly turning into a can’t-miss Test match — and if this is the entertainment and knife’s-edge cricket that is promised for this tour, it will be a can’t-miss series. Buckle up for a hugely important day of Test cricket.

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: 300 up for India

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: There's 300 for India. Into the 77th over, will be interesting to see England's plan for the second new ball. Scoring might be easier with the harder ball.

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: TEA, India lead by 304

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: So that's tea, both Rahul and Nair see it through. Very comfortably India's session, 145 runs and both batters reaching their centuries. Now, it's a matter of quickly, and the key being quickly, getting to a number they will be happy to defend in the overs they think they need to get 10 English wickets. The matter in India's hands now.

June 23, 2025 8:09 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Karun Nair gets off the pair with a reverse sweep, takes lead to 303

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Karun Nair with his first runs since return, and it's a bit of the T20 from him too. Vacant third man region, so just reverses it into that area, and the ball runs away for four. He'll breathe easier now.

Lead to 303. When do India start swinging if they want a go at England today evening? They won't feel close to safe until 350, you feel.

June 23, 2025 8:01 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Not this time! Pant holes out, but his job is done

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Timely wicket for England, and Pant's fun is at an end. Keeps going after Bashir, and this time connects, but not well enough. Down the throat of long-on, but a standing ovation from Headingley. He came in as 92/3, and has helped India to what they will want to ensure is a winning position. Enthralling stuff from the young man, a Test match to remember.

June 23, 2025 7:55 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: No holding back now! 4, 6, 4!

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant was exceedingly patient in his late 90s, not tempted as Stokes tried to tempt his ego by floating it outside the off-stump via Root and Bashir. Now, no such compunctions. Tries a reverse-sweep, picks up for from byes. Next ball, bullet down the ground. After that, one-handed over extra-cover, flies for six. After that, hard sweep in front of square for four more.

Lead into the 290s out of nowhere.

June 23, 2025 7:50 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: TWIN HUNDREDS FOR RISHABH PANT! A MODERN-DAY GREAT

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: HISTORY FOR RISHABH PANT! He becomes the first Indian wicketkeeper-batter, the first Asian wicketkeeper-batter, to score centuries in each innings of a Test match. Only the second ever behind Andy Flower. An eighth Test century. A fourth in England, ties with Sachin Tendulkar with that many on these shores. What a player, what a feat.

Sunil Gavaskar asks him for a front flip. Pant smiles up at him and says maybe later. Still a job to be done.

June 23, 2025 7:28 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant into the 90s, lead past 250…

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: No time to catch your breath. Pant suddenly on 95*, the lead suddenly onto 255.

June 23, 2025 7:14 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: CENTURY FOR KL RAHUL! 

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: KL Rahul has played beautifully, and a century he truly deserves! He is now the senior batter for this team now, and he converts when he was truly needed to. A lovely off-drive, comes back for two, and raises his bat and helmet to celebrate. 

A real song of ice and fire at the moment, and it is leaving England in deep trouble. Lead up to 240.

June 23, 2025 7:04 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant goes hard and it's parried by Stokes!

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant certainly not holding back now, peppering the off-side. Goes twice against Bashir, gets two the first time, and the next time, hits it hard enough that it just stings the palms of a diving Stokes. Any less power on that and the English captain might have pulled off a blinder.

June 23, 2025 6:57 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant turns the heat up! 6, 6 off Bashir

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Rishabh Pant is ready now! Takes the attack, but in a fairly orthodox fashion. Straight down the ground off Bashir for a pair of sixes, and then next over, smacks a pull shot off Carse in front of square.

Lead suddenly 217, Pant suddenly 73*.

June 23, 2025 6:48 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: This time and edge through second slip! Pant reaches 50

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Rishabh Pant onto 49* with another thick edge, this time enough to get it past first slip who is now in — but it's only one man. Vacant area and it flies to the fence again.

Tucks it away to reach his 50. Not a classic by any means but it means he can keep going.

June 23, 2025 6:39 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant. quickly onto 45*

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Another boundary, this time off a thick outside edge. Pant getting the runs to flow early in this session, which is ominous signs for England. Lead up to 185.

June 23, 2025 6:23 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: No slip for Tongue and Pant survives edge!

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: That would have flown straight to first slip but England have spread the field! You never see that, as Broad mentions on air. Another missed opportunity for England, but you could argue a calculated risk from Pant to drive. Gathers four there, and another boundary as he steps down and spanks it through cover.

June 23, 2025 6:20 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Rahul cashes in on overpitched delivery for 4

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Rahul with a shot that may be a sign of India's approach now. Overpitch from Bashir, Rahul strides down and guides it past extra-cover for 4. More of that needed, especially with Rahul batting for more than 160 balls.

June 23, 2025 6:11 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Back from the lunch break

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Welcome back. Plenty to still fight for. The first session was a little bit of tentatively shuffling chess pieces around. Now, the two teams prep for the endgame. Expect some big swings.

June 23, 2025 5:33 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: LUNCH, IND lead by 159 after losing Gill

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: India will take that. Just 63 runs in the session, but importantly only a solitary wicket lost, which means the spoils are shared. Both teams will hardly look at their lunch, that's for sure. A break for strategising and coming up with plans.

June 23, 2025 5:25 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Lead builds to 150, rain in the air before lunch

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Bashir introduced for a quick spell before lunch. Some rain in the air, but it comes and goes. Meanwhile, the lead up to 154. Slow, patient going at the moment.

June 23, 2025 5:00 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Quieter after the drop

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: The game falling into a rhythm now, neither batter trying too many shots and England in a holding pattern as well. Lead grows, quietly, to 140.

June 23, 2025 4:45 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: DROPPED! KL Rahul survives

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: ANOTHER drop at gully! Been about 5 of those so far. Rahul pokes at one before trying to withdraw his shot, but it catches his edge and flies head-height at Harry Brook. He should be gobbling that up, but doesn't get his hands up in time, and can only parry it.

Rahul's turn to give England a look at it, and he too gets away with one. India, scary times!

June 23, 2025 4:33 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant settles down a touch, Stokes introduces himself

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: More compact from Pant. Has been muttering away at himself and has just calmed down before the drinks break. Rahul negotiating with Stokes, happy to shoulder his bat repeatedly.

June 23, 2025 4:16 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: And again! This time the inside edge saves him

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Every Indian heart in every Indian mouth at the moment. Rishabh Pant tries to fall over and play one of those scoop-flicks, but he barely makes contact. But he does, onto his pad. England go for the DRS review, and burn one.

June 23, 2025 4:12 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant living on the edge! Nearly pops right up

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Got away with one there, did Pant! Goes for a hoick across the line but Carse is getting plenty of bounce on this pitch, and it's a thick edge. For a second it looks like it went straight up, but it just keeps carrying back towards the fine leg boundary. Evades fine leg running across and slip running back, and fetches him 4 — but that was risky.

June 23, 2025 3:56 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: 50 for KL Rahul!

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Goal one accomplished for Rahul, reaches his milestone. But he will be aware there is plenty of work to be done even now.

June 23, 2025 3:48 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Rahul leaving everything

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Concerning if you're India. Suddenly plenty of jag and carry in the pitch, but Rahul is calm and collected. Doesn't offer at anything.

June 23, 2025 3:41 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Lead at 100 as Pant dances down and gets away with an edge!

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pant going for it early! Dances down and swings hard, and it's a thick edge. Full blooded swing, and that's fortunately enough to help the edge carry over the head of first slip. Risky from Pant but that's what he will do.

June 23, 2025 3:37 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: GONE! England on top as Gill chops on

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Horror start for India! It's a wicket Gill won't be happy with. Pitches and nips in, far too close to cut, and Gill chops it on to his off stump. Some lateral movement, but that could have been left on line or length. Brydon Carse strikes. Wow, the complexion of this game has changed dramatically, very early on.

June 23, 2025 3:34 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Gill with first runs of the day with a short-arm jab

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: The run-scoring gets going. Gill with a typical pull off his hips, the batters can come back for two.

Few more cracks have opened up on the pitch overnight, the commentators notice.

June 23, 2025 3:31 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Here we go! Bashir completes his over to get things started

IND vs ENG Live Score, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Shoaib Bashir with a ball remaining from yesterday's interrupted over, which is easily fended off by Rahul. We are off!

June 23, 2025 3:20 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Updates, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Definitely a very grey Leeds as last moments of prep go through

IND vs ENG Live Updates, India vs England Test Series Day 4: Pictures from the ground show plenty of cloud cover, the hover covers only just coming off the surface now. Does look like an overcast and damp day, which will be a concern for Rahul and Gill, and good news for Stokes and his group. Very close to start of play now.

June 23, 2025 3:10 PM IST

IND vs ENG Live Updates, India vs England Test Series Day 4: How attacking will India try to be?

IND vs ENG Live Updates, India vs England Test Series Day 4: While it might make sense to take things easy early on, there is also an opportunity for India to try and score runs at a rate. They did so in the first innings, with a flurry of glorious drives and punches, and every run will be insulation against England's quality batting attack. More importantly, it will give India extra time: if Gautam Gambhir gets his way, he will want his brand of cricket to be the attacking, front-foot kind, not dissimilar to how he captained in T20s. Interesting balance to try and find.
