"No, we'll make that call in Manchester still. We know we've got him for one of the last two Tests. I think it's pretty obvious the series is on the line now in Manchester, so there will be a leaning towards playing him," ten Doeschate said.
With two more matches still left in the series, the peerless fast bowler's availability at Old Trafford will depend on multiple factors.

"But again, we've got to look at all the factors. How many days of cricket are we going to get up there? What do we feel is our best chance of winning that game? And then how that fits in together with the Oval and looking at the last two games holistically as part of the series," ten Doeschate said.
On Thursday, the Indian team had a training session at the County Ground in Beckenham before leaving for Manchester for the penultimate game of the five-match series.
Bumrah is currently the second-highest wicket-taker in the series, with 12 scalps in four innings at an average of 28.09.
Soon after India lost the third Test, skipper Shubman Gill simply said "you'll get to know soon" when asked about Bumrah's participation in Manchester.
After India's defeat at Lord's, former players like Anil Kumble urged the team management to push Bumrah to play the final two Tests to save the series.

Siraj pushes his limit to lead India's fightback
Mumbai: Even in a lengthy series, you can single out moments of inspiration that can prove defining. Mohammed Siraj's unrelenting spell of eight overs before tea on Day 2 at The Oval could prove to be one. The onus is on India as a collective to back up his brilliance. Mohammed Siraj celebrates after taking the wicket of England's Jacob Bethell. (PTI) It was immediately after India had lost the Lord's Test narrowly that Siraj doffed his hat to Ben Stokes for bowling tireless marathon spells. 'If you can learn from someone, there's no shame,' he said. No shame, indeed. Just like his English pace counterpart, the Hyderabad fast bowler strained every sinew and kept running in to keep India in the Test after their batters had folded up for 224 in the first innings. His spell could well prove the spark for an Indian win to level the series 2-all. Fast bowlers have to bowl long spells from time to time. But think of the strain the present-day pacer has to endure in a five-Test series, stuffed in between a great deal of white-ball cricket. After Chris Woakes' freak injury ruled him from further participation at The Oval, Siraj is the only one among the pace pack from either side to play in all the Tests and still in action – 154 overs and counting. When Siraj came on to bowl mid-day, England openers had already played a powerful hand before lunch in 16 overs of mayhem, scoring at over run-a-ball. India's total had begun to look insufficient. While the sun showed up now and then, the pitch still had plenty of juice. India's pacers had to hit their lengths and stay patient. Siraj was among the bowlers who had gone for plenty with the new ball. He needed an early spark and the bowler created it on his own by getting one to nip back in sharply to Ollie Pope (22), trapping him lbw. Siraj stayed patient, not just with his lengths but lines too. He needed to be against Joe Root. There are days when Siraj likes to have a chirp with the batter. Not on Friday. He left it to Prasidh Krishna. All Siraj wanted was to channel his energies on breaking through Root's defence. He had done it before in the series targeting the stumps and on the final ball of the fifth over of his spell, summoned another one of his scrambled seam deliveries that rammed into Root's pads. The lbw decision was reviewed by Root, but DRS confirmed it. England were now four wickets down, but India still had plenty to do. They didn't have a fourth seamer to exploit the green pitch and Shubman Gill had no choice but to stick with Siraj. As if asking Siraj to invoke the spirit of Ishant Sharma's nine-over spell in the Perth Test of 2008, Gill kept throwing the ball to him for one more over. Siraj bowled his 6th, the 7th and then the 8th. While he worked hard, Siraj was able to pin the talented newcomer Jacob Bethell down with a toe crusher following up on a series of wobble seam balls. This time England wouldn't review. It was obvious that the ball would have dismantled Bethell's stumps. Each of Siraj's three wickets were arrowing in on the stumps and went into the scoresheet as leg before dismissals. After starting the day with a spell of 4-0-31-0, Siraj's second spell read 8-1-35-3. He may have bowled more productive spells before, but few where he was the last fast bowler standing in a punishing series played on batter-friendly decks, barring this one. The Oval Test has offered just rewards to the pacers, to try and overcome the pain barrier, bend their backs and make it count. Siraj did with his four-wicket haul, adding Harry Brook in the end. Siraj has taken on the mantle of leading the pace attack in Jasprit Bumrah's absence. Even in Australia where Bumrah was phenomenal, it was Siraj who bowled the most number of overs. Here, with an innings to come, he is already the series' highest wicket taker. So good has Siraj been with his skills and pluck that he would have won an admirer even from the opposing side in Stokes, the injured England skipper watching from the dressing room.

'I am pleasantly surprised': Ashwin stunned by team's bold move on Bumrah, shares insightful take
Former India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed surprise over Jasprit Bumrah not featuring in the fifth Test in the series against England. read more Former India bowler Ravichandran Ashwin was left flummoxed to witness Jasprit Bumrah's absence in the , but ended up admitting that it was the right decision on the part of Bumrah. Paying heed to the topic through his YouTube channel, Ashwin stated that he expected the team to push the pacer to play the final Test, but noted that the management may have come to terms with the importance the player holds for Team India and because of that, it may have abstained from trying to persuade him. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD To manage the workload and evade a potential injury, Jasprit Bumrah had conveyed his intention to play only three out of the five Tests in the series. As promised, the pacer only featured in three Tests -1st, 3rd, and 4th- of the series and finished his campaign with 14 wickets. 'I am pleasantly surprised because if this were the Indian team of the past, they would have persuaded Bumrah to play the final Test. Even now, the team management might have looked at it, but from Bumrah's perspective, this is a sound decision. He had already decided that he was going to play only three Tests, and he stuck to that,' Ashwin said on YouTube. Ashwin on management resting Bumrah in the fifth Test Ashwin highlighted that Bumrah's longstanding back issue was a factor in his absence from the fifth Test, and believes that resting him could benefit the Indian team in the long term. 'His back issue is not a normal one. It has kept him out of the game for almost two years. He is a valuable asset to the Indian team. So, the decision is the right one, and I am pleasantly surprised. I am very happy that Bumrah is prioritizing his body because in the long run, he will be very useful,' Ashwin added. Fifth Test hangs in balance After losing yet another toss, Shubman Gill and co were put to bat first. On a difficult surface to bat on at the Oval, India's innings crumbled like a sack of potatoes and ended up getting 224 on the board. In reply, England had a perfect start, with Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley once again giving the hosts a flying start. England were cruising at 129/1, but wickets began to fall in the second session of Day 2. The Indian bowlers carved their way back into the game and restricted England to 247. Trailing by 23 runs, Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul gave India a steady start and eradicated the trail at a fine pace. England eventually drew first blood in the form of Rahul, who departed after making just 7 runs. Jaiswal and Sai Sudharsan are currently in the middle as India have reached 55/1 after 13 overs, leading by 32 runs. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Rising golf star Charlie Woods: Inside the life of Tiger Woods' son, from school to net worth
Source: X The 16-year-old son of Tiger Woods is following closely in his father's footsteps and making waves in junior golf. On Thursday, Charlie Woods stayed in strong contention for a spot on the U.S. Junior Ryder Cup team, tying for second place at the Junior PGA Championship after firing a 5-under 66 in a rain-delayed third round at Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex in Indiana. Sitting at 12-under 202, Charlie is proving he's not just a famous last name—but a rising contender in his own right. But there is more to Charlie Woods than just his last name. Here is all about Charlie Woods- Family and background Charlie is the younger of two children born to Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren. His sister, Sam Alexis Woods, was born in 2007. After their parents' divorce in 2010, both children have been raised through a cooperative co-parenting arrangement. From his mother's relationship with former NFL player Jordan Cameron, Charlie also has three half-siblings. His heritage reflects a multicultural blend—Swedish through his mother, and African-American, Thai, Chinese, and Dutch through his father. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Undo Source: X Tiger has often spoken publicly about the joy and grounding that fatherhood brings him, especially following his serious car crash in 2021. 'Being a dad has helped him stay focused on his recovery,' a PEOPLE source said, noting that his children are his greatest motivation. Education Charlie attends The Benjamin School in Palm Beach, Florida, where he is part of the Class of 2027. He plays for the school's competitive golf team, which ranks among Florida's most elite. Though he hasn't yet made a college commitment, he's clearly on the radar of top programs. Bilingual in English and Swedish, Charlie also has a strong interest in equipment, often described as picky about his golf clubs, much like his father. As a younger child, Charlie focused more on soccer, but during the COVID-19 pandemic, when team sports were restricted, he gravitated toward golf, a shift that would set him on his current path. Golf career and achievements Charlie Woods began attracting national attention when he became the youngest competitor in PNC Championship history at age 11 in 2020. He and Tiger have played in the event for five consecutive years, showing impressive chemistry and consistency. In 2020, the father-son duo tied at 5th position, and Charlie made his first eagle with a 175-yard 5-wood. They came second in the years 2021 and 2024. The year 2024 was particularly special for Charlie as he made his first hole-in-one with a 7-iron on a par-3, helping force a playoff. That year's event also set a TV viewership record, with a 147% increase in first-round ratings from the previous year. Source: X Hurricane Junior Golf Tour's Major Championship in Royal Palm Beach by eight strokes in the 14–15 age group. A few months later, in September, he won the Last Chance Regional with a low round of 66. In November 2023, he helped The Benjamin School win the Florida Class A State Championship and finished tied for 26th. That season, he ranked 80th overall in Florida high school golf, 9th among freshmen, and 28th in Class 1A. His biggest win came in May 2025, when he won his first AJGA title at the Team TaylorMade Invitational. He shot 15-under (70-65-66) and beat a field that included four of the top-five AJGA players. Charlie also qualified for the U.S. Junior Amateur in both 2024 and 2025. In 2024, he missed the cut after rounds of 82 and 80. In 2025, he qualified again at Trinity Forest but missed the cut with rounds of 81 and 74. Net worth As of 2024, Charlie Woods' estimated net worth is approximately $25 million, driven by family wealth, endorsements, sponsorships, and media appearances. His annual income is around $4 million, though most of it is tied to long-term brand value and investments rather than tournament earnings.
