IND vs ENG Weather Report, Pitch Report Of Old Trafford, Manchester- 4th Test, India Tour of England 2025:
IND vs ENG Weather Report of Manchester:
There are slight chances of rain during all five days of the IND vs ENG game in Manchester. The maximum temperature is predicted to be 19°C while the minimum temperature would be 13°C.
IND vs ENG Pitch Report of Old Trafford:
The surface at Old Trafford in Manchester has had something in it for both batters and bowlers throughout the game traditionally, and is expected to remain the same for the upcoming match.
The batters can trust the bounce of the wicket on the first three days, and the team batting first can aim to score at least 340-350 runs to stay in the game, as the average first innings score at this ground has been 331 runs.
As far as the fast bowlers are concerned, they can also get a bit of assistance during the first three days if they band their back and bowl in the right areas.
The wicket is expected to deteriorate as the match progresses, with the spinners coming into the game.

Owing to the above-mentioned reason, India might opt to go with the same combination of two spinners and at least three fast bowlers for the next match.
It would be interesting to see if the team plays six bowlers like it did in the last match at the Lord's, as many of the first-choice players are nursing injuries before the match, which might force the team to change the combination.
India can also bring in Kuldeep Yadav if the team management feels that he might be effective on this wicket.
But the main question is who will Kuldeep replace, will it be a fast bowler or Washington Sundar, who provides depth in the batting department.
As far as England is concerned, they don't have many options as far as spin bowling is concerned and will be forced to make a change in the playing XI that won the Test match at Lord's.
The only change expected in England's XI is the inclusion of Liam Dawson in place of Shoaib Bashir, who has been ruled out of the series due to an injury that he picked up while bowling in the last match.
Conclusion
India would like to make a strong comeback in the series after losing the third Test by a close margin.
As far as England is concerned, the home team would want to continue the momentum they have on their side after a win in the last match.
