@5:15PM: Joe Root comes in. India’s target will be to get him out quickly and the match could be India’s.
@5:08PM: WICKET! Dawid Malan departs. An absolutely silly call from Haseeb Hameed and a good throw from Mayank was caught by Rishabh who made no mistake.
@4:55PM: IND vs ENG LIVE Score – England now require less than 250 runs to win, Hameed’s dropped catch can cost INDIA dearly – Jadeja is looking ineffective up till now. 18 Overs without success – Will India miss Ashwin?
@4:40PM: India vs ENGLAND LIVE Score – Hameed dropped, Siraj drops a lolly here -Jadeja to Hameed, no run – a moment of two lapses. Out of nowhere, Hameed has tried a big shot against the turn, offering a simple catch to Siraj at mid-on but Siraj has dropped it. Into his midriff it goes and comes out. Hameed sighs in relief
@4:35: 1st Drinks Break of the day | England 109/1 after 46 overs – No one can still call this match
Haseeb Hameed 54* | Dawid Malan 2* | Shardul Thakur 1/11 | India need 9 wickets | England need another 259 runs to win
@4:30PM: IND vs ENG LIVE Score – Ravinder Jadeja will be the key today for India, he is posing some problems for Malan here – using the rough well, can he clinch another wicket here?
@4:15PM: IND vs ENG LIVE Score – Haseeb Hameed completes 50: England need 265 to win Oval test. This is Haseeb’s 4th test 50 in 6th test match.
A solid start from the England opener on Day 5. Haseeb Hameed resumed on 43 today morning and has now got to his 4th Test fifty. This half-century will give Hameed a lot of confidence. But the job is not done yet. England have just lost Rory Burns and will now need a big knock from Hameed. He cracks his second fifty of the series. ENG 103/1 after 41.2 overs, need another 265 runs to win
Second Test fifty in the series for Haseeb Hameed 👏
Can he convert it into triple figures?#WTC23 | #ENGvIND | https://t.co/zRhnFiKhzZ pic.twitter.com/zHLu99SjXG

@4:10PM: IND vs ENG LIVE Score – England completes 100, Rory Burns complete his 50 – But Shardul Thakur has taken 1st wicket – Rory Burns is out after completing his 50
First breakthrough for India after 40.3 overs. Shardul Thakur strikes in his first over. Rory Burns departs straight after his 11th Test fifty. Shardul produces a jaffa and Burns edges it straight to Rishabh Pant behind the stumps. Looked like a slight lapse in concentration from Burns after his fifty. He was leaving that sort of deliveries before this. But credit has to go to Shardul for producing a peach coming straight into the attack. Shardul draws first blood. ENG 100/1 after 40.4 overs, need another 268 runs to win
@4:05PM: IND vs ENG LIVE Score – Can England chase 291 on Final Day? Both England openers Rory Burns & Haseeb Hameed are looking confident and are approaching their 50’s – England now 93/0
@4:00PM: IND vs ENG LIVE Score – Both England openers are playing confidently and have reached 86/0 – When the game started England needed to score 291 runs at 3.23 runs per over.
It’s roasting at the Oval .. !! This is going to be intriguing .. Will England go for these Runs ? Will India have enough fire power to get 10 wkts ?? The Draw is the favourite IMO .. but England generally don’t do boring so we are in for a classic .. #ENGvIND

OVAL Highest Chase Record: Will England chase highest ever score at Oval or will India win Day 5 at Oval – Follow IND vs ENG 4th test Day 5 LIVE Updates
IND vs ENG LIVE Score: England closed day four of fourth Test on 77-0 chasing record 368 to win. But to chase balance 291, England will have to create a new history & various records at Oval.
First England has to break the record of highest ever total chased at Oval ground. The highest successful Test run chase at The Oval is the 263-9 England scored against Australia in 1902, while only four times in first-class history at the ground has a side chased more than 350 in the fourth innings.

England need to top the 362 they managed at Emerald Headingley in the 2019 Ashes when Ben Stokes scored a quite remarkable unbeaten 135 in a one-wicket win over Australia.
England do not have Stokes this time – the all-rounder is still taking a break from the game to prioritise his mental wellbeing – but they do have a positive start, Joe Root to come, an extremely flat Oval surface underfoot and no Ravichandran Ashwin to contend with.
OVAL Highest Chase Record: Will India regret not including Ashwin in playing XI ?
IND vs ENG LIVE Score: India will not have Ashwin to take advantage of 5th day wicket at Oval & this can become major talking point if India fails to stop England scoring balance 291 runs on Day 5.
England will have to score 291 runs at 3.23 runs per over. Thakur, Pant, Bumrah and Umesh Yadav all showed that risk-free runs could be accumulated at 4.46 runs to the over over a full session.
But Day 5 pressure will make it a huge challenge for England, especially if the under-pressure Jadeja can find his rhythm.
A great chase is very much in the realm of the possible on this wicket & so are chances of India’s victory & not to forget a exciting draw also is on the cards.
Ind vs Eng: ‘No Shami, no Ishant, no Ashwin,’ Atherton, Holding fancy England’s chances of record chase at Oval, says, ‘It’s pretty flat
“It’s pretty flat, there’s not much happening, and then you look at the shape of India’s attack. No Shami, no Ishant, no Ashwin, they seemed very reliant in that first innings on Bumrah especially. How much will Jadeja have an influence? He may have an impact, (but) it’s a good pitch,” Atherton said while commentating on Sky Sports.
“I don’t really see this pitch playing too many tricks. I didn’t see the England seamers create too many problems… and the India seamers I don’t expect to do much better. And Jadeja, I don’t know. I would have preferred Ashwin if you’re talking about just the bowling,” Holding added.
