India vs England test records at Old Trafford Cricket stadium in Manchester: The fourth Test of the five-match series between India and England will be played from July 23 at Old Trafford in Manchester. The English team is currently leading the series 2-1. Ben Stokes and Co. are confident after winning matches at Headingley and Lord's.

At the same time, the young Team India led by Shubman Gill will be looking to make a comeback. However, the comeback will not be easy for the Indian team, as it is facing England on a ground where we have never won a Test. India played Tests in Manchester under the leadership of one great captain after another, but could not win. Now Gill has a chance to create history. He has a chance to leave behind captains like Sunil Gavaskar and Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

India's Manchester Test Record

India has played a total of nine Tests at Old Trafford in Manchester so far. Out of this, England has managed to win four Tests, while five Tests have been drawn. Team India has a great chance to break this streak of defeat and draw and a win will make the series interesting. If India manages to draw 2-2 in Manchester, then the pressure will come on England. Then everything will be decided by the fifth Test to be held at Kennington Oval from July 31. Team India had a similar record at Edgbaston in Birmingham, but Gill's team was successful in creating history. Now once again the Indian team will try to put in its full strength in Manchester.

A young team led by Gill is touring England. No cricket pundits had named India as the favorites for this series. However, Team India has surprised in all three Tests so far. It has given a tough fight to the experienced English team.

A mistake in one session at Headingley led to defeat, while the failure of the batsmen in the fourth innings at Lord's led to the loss. Team India has lacked in some departments and the team management would like to correct it before the fourth Test. India has so far played in Manchester under the leadership of Vijaynagaram (1936), Nawab Pataudi Senior (1946), Vijay Hazare (1952), Dutta Gaekwad (1959), Ajit Wadekar (1971 and 1974), Sunil Gavaskar (1982), Mohammad Azharuddin (1990) and Mahendra Singh Dhoni (2014).

Gill will be the ninth captain to captain on this ground. India drew Tests at Old Trafford in Manchester in 1936, 1946, 1971, 1982 and 1990. However, England won in 1952, 1959, 1974 and 2014.
