Amidst Fatigue, Stokes-less England And India Brace For Gruelling Series Decider At The Oval
At Old Trafford: Both England and India find themselves nursing mental and physical fatigue as they approach the end of a long Test series. But now, as the fifth and final Test starts at The Oval on Thursday, both teams must shake off the fatigue and give their best shot in a gruelling series decider.
The series has tested endurance, particularly of the fast bowlers, with every contest going into day five and setting the stage for a great finish. Remarkably, India still have a shot at squaring the series 2-2, thanks to a gritty draw at Old Trafford, led by a second innings resistance of 143 overs.
That match ended with some sparks as Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar completed their centuries and refused England captain Ben Stokes’s offer of a handshake to settle for a draw. With the happenings of Manchester still fresh, one shouldn’t be surprised if there’s some more drama under London skies.
