That's It! Ben Stokes wanted to shake hands ten minutes earlier, but both the set batters on crease wanted to score a century. They did it in no time and as they celebrate they shook hands with Ben Stokes and the other England players. Remarkable achievement from India as they have snatched a draw from the jaws of defeat. Over a day of batting and display of solid grit. Started by Shubman Gill and KL Rahul and ended with Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar. Ben Stokes and the England players will be disappointed.Â
Some sensational batting performance from Ravindra Jadeja like he did through the entire series. He came in when India were battling a crisis and lost the wicket of Shubman Gill, gave a chance in the first ball, but since then batted for two entire sessions and deservedly brought up his century. It has been a memorable series for Jadeja and continues to be one.Â
Ben Stokes offered a draw to the Umpire and India but they have denied the offer and continue to bat. Both Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar are near their hundred and they have done the hard work to complete it. They will continue batting and reach out to their century.Â

The two have not only ensured that there has been no damage done to the wickets' column but also have taken past the lead, albeit a slender one. India will now look to continue to do the good work in the final session to ensure that the game ends in a draw.Â
FIFTY for Ravindra Jadeja as well! The all-rounder has shown his class and composure in this knock alongside Washington Sundar and the two have taken India into the lead now. It has been some response from India since being 0/2 down last day.Â

LUNCH on Day 5! England have bounced right back in this first session on the final day! KL Rahul and Shubman Gill continued their stellar partnership from yesterday before Ben Stokes trapped the former LBW. Shubman Gill battled hard on a pitch with uneven bounce and got to his ninth Test century. Shortly after, he suffered a lapse of concentration and edged a delivery outside the off-stump to Jamie Smith. England could have had the wicket of Ravindra Jadeja but Joe Root dropped a tough chance in the slip cordon. So far, England are in command in this contest while a lot for India would rest on the partnership between Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja.Â
OUT! Jofra Archer strikes and he delivers the big wicket of Shubman Gill! The right-hander got an edge to a wide delivery and Jamie Smith does the rest. India have lost their captain just at the stroke of lunch and this is a body blow for the visitors! Shubman Gill c Jamie Smith b Jofra Archer 103(238)
CENTURY for Shubman Gil! It is his ninth Test century and fourth in England! What a series he is having and out of all the centuries, this one has been a truly gutsy effort after his team was 0-2 at one stage. He has answered the call to rescue his team and this innings is going to be one that the young captain cherishes for a long time. He has been in good form all throughout the series apart from the Lord's Test match and the first innings here in Manchester.Â
England have taken the second new ball in this innings and will back themselves to get atleast one more wicket, ideally that of Shubman Gill in this session. India on the other hand, will hope to not lose any wicket in this session.Â
Washington Sundar and Shubman Gill joined forces at the crease after the fall of KL Rahul's wicket. Both these players will look to remain unbeaten for this session of play atleast as England aim at taking more wickets.Â
OUT! England get the breakthrough they desperately were looking for and it Ben Stokes who has done the trick once again! He has struck KL Rahul right in front of the stumps with the ball staying low and umpire Rod Tucker did not waste time in lifting his finger. KL Rahul misses out on a deserved century and India have been dented big time and out comes Washington Sundar, in place of Rishabh Pant at number five. KL Rahul lbw b Ben Stokes 90(230)
India have had a cautious start with KL Rahul and Shubman Gill continuing their partnership. India will want these two to bat as long as possible today while England continue their hunt for a breakthrough.Â
Riding on knocks from Joe Root (150) and Ben Stokes (141), England managed to put up a mammoth 669 runs in their first innings with a lead of 311. A toothless Indian attack toiled hard, with Ravindra Jadeja being the star performer, claiming four wickets.
In reply, India started their second innings poorly, losing opener Yashasvi Jaiswal and number three batter Sai Sudharsan for zero, respectively, with Chris Woakes giving England a stellar start. With the series on the line, captain Shubman Gill and KL Rahul stood tall and built an impenetrable wall that saw England bowlers toil hard for a wicket, as the duo added 174 runs off 373 balls, taking India to safety at stumps with eight wickets in hand. IND vs ENG 4th Test 2025: KL Rahul, Shubman Gill on Verge of Landmark Centuries As Manchester Test Enters Final Day.
