IND vs ENG 5th Test Pitch Report: Historically, the pitch here is flat initially, but cracks start appearing in the next few days. Spinners will dominate in the last two days. The new ball will give seam movement and grip to the fast bowlers.

Overall, this is another pitch that will prove to be helpful for the batsmen. However, spinners come into play on the last two days as the cracks widen and the bounce becomes uneven. Fast bowlers will have to maintain patience and bowl consistently in the right direction.

At the same time, once the eye is set, the pitch can also prove to be very helpful for batting. Therefore, both the teams can win the toss and decide to bat first here. However, fast bowlers will have to bowl consistently on the right line and length to take wickets.

India's best score on this pitch is 664 runs, which it made here in the year 2007. While England scored the best score on this ground in 1934 against Australia, scoring 903/7 in an innings.
