India vs England, 4th Test – India Steady at 264/4 in Manchester
Guwahati,Assam - 24 July 2025: India posted a steady 264/4 at stumps on Day 1 of the fourth Test against England yesterday. India's captain Shubman Gill won the toss and chose to bat first under overcast skies.

After both openers fell, the spotlight turned to Sai Sudharsan, who impressed with a calm and composed 61 from 151 balls. He anchored the innings smartly even as India lost skipper Shubman Gill (12) cheaply and Rishabh Pant retired hurt on 37 after a promising start.
At the close of play, Ravindra Jadeja (19)* and Shardul Thakur (19)* remained unbeaten, steering India to a decent total heading into Day 2.
