Ind vs Eng ,5th Test at the Oval, fourth day summary Joe Root and Harry Brook turned the tide with a marathon, match-defining foundation —

Joe Root and Harry Brook turned the tide with a marathon, match-defining foundation —snatched the driving seat from the visitors,
On Day 4, unbeaten batter Ben Duckett resumed his innings with skipper Ollie Pope to chase a massive total — 324.
Then Ben Duckett completed his fine fifty (54 off 88), eventually caught behind at slip by KL Rahul off Prasidh Krishna's fabulous delivery.
Later, England lost skipper Ollie Pope's wicket (27 off 34) at 106 as the third wicket.
Although Joe Root and Harry Brook turned the tide with a marathon, match-defining foundation — 195 for the fourth wicket — both batters snatched the driving seat from the visitors.
First, Harry Brook played Bazball-style cricket and punched a century — 111 off just 98 balls including 14 grounded shots and 2 sixes, in which one of the sixes gave him a lifeline, when Mo. Siraj took the catch at fine leg but his foot touched the ropes.
On the other hand, the phenomenal, calm, cool, and composed Joe Root stood like steel at the other end and clinched his 39th Test hundred (105 off 152). Both batters shattered India's hopes and dreams till now and made sure England is a strong contender to win the fifth Test before his departure.
"India’s depleted pace attack struggled, leading to a tired and toothless bowling performance."

Later, Prasidh Krishna and Mo. Siraj claimed 3 and 2 wickets for India, while Akash Deep got one.
In the evening, the game stopped due to bad light. Moreover, for the 7th wicket, both Jamie Smith and Overton remained unbeaten when England needed just 35 runs to clinch the victory.
Hence, at stumps, England were 339/6.
On the next day, India needs a miracle with the ball while England needs patience. Bowlers have delivered fiery spells from both ends, because somehow, injured Englishman Chris Woakes might come to bat if required.

The Silent Warrior of No.3 – Cheteshwar Pujara Retires from International Cricket From a 13-year-long career span, Cheteshwar Pujara played with patience, calmness, composure, clinical precision, and an old-school classical batting style. Absorbing the pressure with his unyielding approach towards the game, he has now decided to pack his bags from International Cricket. One of the greatest No.3 batsmen for India, the man carried billions of hopes as a saviour and carried forward the legacy of Rahul Dravid’s “The Wall” in Test cricket. He served as a red-ball specialist batter in his whole career with his bottom-hand technique and nonchalant toughness. Pujara added 7,195 runs in 103 Test matches with an average of 43.60, where he hammered 19 relentless tons and 35 noteworthy half-centuries. Meanwhile, he faced 16,217 balls in his career which clearly shows his temperament and approach in the Test format. With his customary shots and typical dogged batting style, ...

  Sir Ravindra, the silent assassin - Jadeja! On 24th May, when the BCCI officials announced the Indian squad for England 2025, everyone on social media was creating a buzz and raising a question mark on veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja's selection for the Test team, and also making stuff, creating memes that Rohit, Virat, and Ashwin are retired and now it's Jadeja's turn due to his ageing. 36-year-old young Sir Jadeja! Always the silent assassin with his contribution towards the nation. No PR! No drama! No controversies! No reaction to criticism! No unnecessary aggression! One and only dedication toward his game.
