Day 5 promises to be an even bigger affair than all the other 4 days if England skipper Ben Stokes` tweet is anything to go by. He said, "Edgbaston Day 5 sold out in 90mins….amazing support we’re getting at the moment." Let`s see if that support helps England through or if India are able to find a way back. It`ll be a terrific last day to an amazing Test series.

Bumrah to bowl what will be the last over of the day. If England can survive this over, they start as heavy favourites tomorrow. 1 from the first 2 balls. Next 3 balls are dots. 150-run stand up. That`s it. Stumps. England need 119 runs to win

That`s Stumps on Day 4 of the Edgbaston Test! England move to 259/3 before the close of play. See you tomorrow for Day 5 action. Scorecard ▶️ https://t.co/xOyMtKrYxM#TeamIndia | #ENGvINDpic.twitter.com/N48XjJFZF8

— BCCI (@BCCI) July 4, 202222:49 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: 6 by Bairstow

Oh my word. Bairstow punishes the short ball for a 6. Tough time in the middle for Siraj tonight. Absolutely leaking runs. England need 132 runs to win

22:44 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: 50 for Jonny Bairstow

Bairstow is on 49 as he faces Shami in the 53rd over. And he gets it. What an innings, what a player. An innings that has built England up again. Hits a four off the next ball. England need 142 runs to win.

Bairstow has followed up a 💯 in the 1st innings with yet another 50 🤯In the form of his life, he`s proved to be a bane for #TeamIndia!Tune in to Sony Six (ENG), Sony Ten 3 (HIN) & Sony Ten 4 (TAM/TEL) - (https://t.co/tsfQJW6cGi)#ENGvINDLIVEonSonySportsNetwork#ENGvINDpic.twitter.com/vZzKJKkcwS

— Sony Sports Network (@SonySportsNetwk) July 4, 202222:34 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: England steady

Half an hour more to go in the day`s play and Shami is scythed for a four by Bairstow. Not what India would need right now. Bairstow edges closer to his 50. England need 156 runs to win

22:29 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Nifty by Bumrah

Bumrah in to bowl now. Can he break this partnership? 3 dots to start. Now if these can be converted into wickets, India will be right back into this one. England need 161 runs to win

22:09 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: 50 for Root

That`s 50 for Root. Great innings under the circumstances. England were in a world of trouble after lunch and tea but Root was ice cold. With Bairstow for company, he looks to take England home in this match.

— England Cricket (@englandcricket) July 4, 202222:04 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Four more from Bairstow

Siraj to bowl to Bairstow and that`s a four off the first ball. What a shot by the in-form batter. They are intent on finishing the match today it seems. Next ball is edged and behind. Could have clattered the stumps but no luck for india. England need 184 runs to win

Frustration abound for Siraj as something went into Root`s eye and he had to stop. He throws the ball looking grumpy. Not Root`s fault though. England need 197 runs to win.

21:47 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: The Shreyas conundrum

Shreyas Iyer’s arrival at the crease made Brendon McCullum active in the dressing room balcony. McCullum flicked his neck with his right hand; the ominous visual looked straight out of a gangster move but the instruction from the England coach to his players was to start chin music, with a couple of close catchers on the leg side. By now, Shreyas’s weakness against fast, short-pitch bowling is well-known to the cricket world. (READ MORE)

21:46 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: How a ball change changed the whole complexion of England’s run chase

Indians were on their knees, pleading with the umpires to change the ball that had bled 106 runs in little over 20 overs. They had tried at least 4-5 times but every time the umpires put it through the ring, the ball would slip through. (Read More)

21:43 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Momentum change

The momentum shift is palpable as the last 3 overs leaked 25 runs. India need to get one of these batters back to the hut. Can Siraj do it? Nope. He is also hit for a boundary. England need 204 runs to win.

Loose ball by Siraj and that`s bread and butter four Bairstow who hits it to the boundary. The 4th ball could have sent Bairstow back he`s droped by Vihari. And that`s four more!!! England need 221 runs to win

This will prove costly, @jbairstow21 dropped #INDvENG#ENGvsINDpic.twitter.com/mJhEtrrOIc

— Salman Hassan (@SalmanHassan__) July 4, 202221:29 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Joe Root paddle sweep master

There is that paddle sweep by Root off Jadeja`s first ball of this over. Shami gives chase and accompanies the ball beyond the boundary ropes. There`s another paddle sweep for four more. England need 225 runs to win

21:24 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Root channels Pietersen

Joe Root is taking a leaf out of Kevin Pietersen`s Wankhede masterclass of the 2012 vintage to play Jadeja off the rough; opening up the off side and playing with the turn.

21:10 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Root survives, makes India pay

Shami in to bowl the 32nd and Root opens the face of the bat to get a boundary. Makes it look so easy. That`s another review by India. Bumrah is off the field and stand-in captain Pant agrees with the bowler. Looked out but the onfield umpire isn`t interested. Ufff. Saved by the height. Another review gone. The next ball is hit straight to the boundary. Salt on wounds etc etc. England need 242 runs to win

21:05 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: India waste a review21:01 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Much-needed boundary for England

England get a much needed boundary off Bumrah`s second ball. Not a very good ball and Root just flicks it off his leg for a four. Te next 2 balls yield no runs as Bumrah keeps piling on the pressure. After 30 overs, England need 251 runs to win.

20:58 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: Kohli fired up

As England lost wickets, Virat Kohli`s aggressive side came to the fore as he celebrated wildly for each one. He is loving it and so are the on-lookers. Intensity thou name is Virat Kohli. 

Virat Kohli just LOVES it 🤣 pic.twitter.com/MbWSrfgU9s

— Sky Sports Cricket (@SkyCricket) July 4, 202220:40 (IST)04 Jul 2022England vs India Live: RUN OUT!!

Would you believe it??? That`s another wicket down and unnecessarily so. Run out!! That was never a run. Why did they take it??? That`s just throwing away the wicket. Lees is gone!!! ENG 109/3 after 24.1 overs.
