Team India out to level five-Test series at Old Trafford

Meanwhile, the tourists find themselves under considerable pressure ahead of the decisive fourth Test against England in Manchester, beginning on July 23. India are currently 2-1 down in the five-Test series after losing the thrilling third Test at Lord's by 22 runs.

Notably, the Asian Giants are yet to win a Test in Manchester in nine attempts. Their issues are compounded by injuries to Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh and Nitish Kumar Reddy. Reddy has been ruled out of the entire series due to a knee injury. Although Deep has a niggle, he is likely to feature in Manchester.

Arshdeep is also out of the fourth Test but could be fit for the final game.
