The fourth Test of the ongoing five-match series between India and England ended in a draw on Sunday (July 27). India trailed by 311 runs after the end of the first innings of both teams, but in the final two days of the game’s play at Old Trafford in Manchester, Indian batters stepped up and batted for 143 overs to cancel out England’s chances of securing an outright win and seal the series with a scoreline of 3-1.
Shubman Gill (103), Ravindra Jadeja (107*), and Washington Sundar (101*) scored centuries for India in the second innings.
After playing a draw in Manchester, India remain fourth in the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 points table. The two-time WTC losing finalists have 16 points to their credit from the available 48, and their PCT% is 33.33.
England also remain third in the points table, but their PCT% has now dropped from 61.11 to 54.16. Ben Stokes’ men have 26 points to their credit from the available 48.
