'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,' he added. What was confirmed before the series?

Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy: Who Will Take Trophy Home If India Win Final Test And Series Ends In Draw? Check Here
IND vs ENG: India pulled off a dramatic escape on Sunday, July 27, as they denied England a series win in the fourth Test at Old Trafford, Manchester. The hosts were firm favourites to seal the inaugural Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, needing just eight Indian wickets with nearly two days to play. However, India's resilience with the bat ensured the match ended in a draw, keeping the series alive at 2-1 in England's favour. Rahul and Gill Lay the Foundation Facing a daunting task, India's survival effort began with KL Rahul and Shubman Gill, who displayed remarkable patience and discipline to bat through the entirety of Day 4. Their stand wore down the English bowling attack and prevented early breakthroughs that could have led to a collapse. Jadeja and Sundar's Match-Saving Partnership On the final day, India were still under pressure, but Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar rose to the occasion. The pair put together an unbroken 203-run partnership that not only frustrated England but also shifted the momentum entirely. Sundar brought up his maiden Test century, while Jadeja remained unbeaten on 107, showcasing grit and maturity. Eventually, with the result inevitable, both teams agreed to shake hands and end the match as a draw—much to India's relief and England's disappointment. Series Heads to The Oval with Everything to Play For With the fourth Test drawn, the five-match series now stands at 2-1 in England's favour. The final Test will be played at The Oval starting Thursday, and India will need to win to level the series. A 2-2 result would be a moral victory for the visitors after being 2-1 down, but the big question remains who would retain the trophy? Who Will Hold the Trophy If Series Is Drawn? According to tradition in most bilateral Test series, if a series ends in a draw, the team that won the previous edition retains the trophy. In this case, while the 2021 Pataudi Trophy ended in a draw, England had beaten India 4-1 in 2018, technically making them the holders. However, the current series marks the inaugural edition of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, replacing the Pataudi Trophy. This raises uncertainty over whether the 2018 result still applies or if a drawn series would mean the trophy is shared. As of now, neither the BCCI nor the ECB has issued an official clarification on the retention rules for the new trophy in the event of a drawn series.

Last year, Sania Mirza came as a guest on 'The Great Indian Kapil Show '. Along with her, other real-life heroes also joined, like boxer Mary Kom, badminton star Saina Nehwal, and Paris Olympics medal hopeful 50-m rifle shooter Sift Kaur Samra. Will We See a Sania Mirza Biopic Soon? Kapil Sharma asked Sania Mirza that since Priyanka Chopra played Mary Kom in the biopic about the 48 kg/51 kg championship boxer, and Parineeti Chopra portrayed Saina Nehwal in the biopic of the badminton star who inspired a generation of Indian girls, whom would Sania Mirza choose to play her in a biographical movie about her life? Who will play Sania in Sania Mirza's biopic? Sania, who is known for her comebacks, volleyed: Is there another Chopra sister who can play this part? Speaking of male leads to play her 'love interest', Sania said she'd have to first find one in real life. Sania is divorced from Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik. The two have a five-year-old son Izhaan, who lives with Sania now. Continuing their discussion about who could play her love interest, Kapil asked if she would like to play the part herself if Shah Rukh Khan were cast opposite her. She said yes and also mentioned Akshay Kumar's name, adding, 'If Akshay is cast opposite me, I definitely would.'
