The five-match Test series between England and India saw all games reach the fifth day, with the Manchester Test being the only one to end in a draw.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">The opening Test at Headingley, Leeds, was rated \u2018very good\u2019 for both the pitch and the outfield. The second Test at Edgbaston, Birmingham, received a \u2018satisfactory\u2019 pitch rating, while its outfield was deemed \u2018very good\u2019. The same ratings \u2014 \u2018satisfactory\u2019 for the pitch and \u2018very good\u2019 for the outfield \u2014 were maintained for the third and fourth Tests, played at Lord\u2019s, London, and Old Trafford, Manchester, respectively.<\/p>\n<h4>IND vs ENG Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Pitch Rating<\/h4>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><strong>1st Test \u2013 Headingley, Leeds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Pitch: Very Good | Outfield: Very Good<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><strong>2nd Test \u2013 Edgbaston, Birmingham<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Pitch: Satisfactory | Outfield: Very Good<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><strong>3rd Test \u2013 Lord\u2019s, London<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Pitch: Satisfactory | Outfield: Very Good<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><strong>4th Test \u2013 Old Trafford, Manchester<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">Pitch: Satisfactory | Outfield: Very Good<\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\">The series proved to be one of the most dramatic contests in recent memory. England and India were locked at 2-2 going into the final game at The Oval, where Shubman Gill\u2019s young Indian side pulled off a thrilling six-run victory to level the series and secure the trophy. The nail-biting finish added to the spectacle of a series that had already provided plenty of drama, high-quality cricket, and individual brilliance.<\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">Shubman Gill emerged as the standout performer, finishing as the leading run-scorer of the series. The Indian skipper amassed a staggering 754 runs in 10 innings at an average of 75.40, which included four centuries. His consistent dominance with the bat earned him the Player of the Series award for India.<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\">For England, Harry Brook stood tall, scoring 481 runs at an average of 53. His aggressive stroke play and ability to deliver under pressure made him the hosts\u2019 Player of the Series.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p id=\"13\" class=\"story_para_13\">Rishabh Pant\u2019s tour of England ended in heartbreak as he suffered a freak injury, fracturing his right foot during the fourth Test in Manchester. With Pant ruled out of the deciding match, he now faces several weeks of rehabilitation, likely missing the Asia Cup.<\/p>\n<p id=\"14\" class=\"story_para_14\"><em>(With IANS Inputs)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/cricketnext-staff-13125.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Cricketnext Staff<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A team of reporters, writers and editors brings you news, analyses, features, live scores, results, stats and everything that\u2019s cricket from all over the globe.
