IND vs ENG: Ben Stokes offers handshake to draw 4th Test; but India say no - what really happened?
England's captain Ben Stokes (AP Photo/Richard Pelham) In a rare and slightly awkward moment on the final day of the fourth Test at Old Trafford, England captain Ben Stokes extended a handshake to signal a mutual agreement to draw the match on Sunday. But to his visible surprise, the Indian batters, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar, declined. With India at 386/4 after 138 overs, and leading by 75 runs, the match was meandering toward an inevitable draw. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! England's bowlers were visibly fatigued. That's when Stokes, looking to wrap things up and perhaps save some energy for the final Test in just three days, walked up to the batters during a break and offered the traditional gesture to end the game. But Jadeja and Sundar had other ideas. Jadeja was on 89 not out, Sundar on 80 not out. Both were nearing personal milestones, centuries that would have added sparkle to an already gutsy Indian fightback. With India having battled from 0/2 on Day 4 to complete dominance, the two lower-order all-rounders saw no harm in batting on, especially with no real threat from the England bowling at that point. Poll Do you believe the Indian batters made the right call by continuing to bat? Absolutely, they were on the verge of centuries Not really, they could have ended it respectfully Yes, they were in control of the match No, it was unnecessary prolongation of the match Stokes, caught off guard, was seen shaking his head and walking back bemused as India declined the gentleman's draw. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo His reaction hinted at frustration, not anger, but perhaps disbelief, as the game dragged into what he felt was unnecessary territory. Drinks were called immediately after, but by then, the story had written itself. In a game known for its spirit and sportsmanship, India's decision to keep batting wasn't unsporting; it was assertive. Milestones mattered, and so did wearing England down ahead of the crucial fifth Test. In the end, the handshake would wait.

Belgian Grand Prix results: Oscar Piastri beats Lando Norris once again to register sixth win of the F1 season
Oscar Piastri wins Belgian Grand Prix (Image credit: F1) The order on the podium continues to remain unchanged, with Oscar Piastri winning his sixth race of the season at the Belgian Grand Prix. The McLaren driver was followed by his teammate Lando Norris in second, and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc in third. Max Verstappen, however, missed out on the podium by finishing fourth in his home race at the iconic Spa-Francorchamps. Belgian Grand Prix 2025 highlights Sunday's race in Belgium was delayed by around 80 minutes due to heavy rainfall. The podium finishers were the same as the top three on the grid after Saturday's qualifying. While Norris started from pole, Piastri joined him on the front row in second, and Leclerc started third. All three drivers managed to maintain their positions on the wet track. Talking about his strategy after clinching victory, Piastri said, 'Lively, very lively! I knew Lap 1 would probably be my best chance of winning the race. I got a good exit out of Turn 1, lifted as little as I dared, and yeah. We had it mostly under control from there. I was a bit disappointed with the rolling start as I thought that would take away the opportunity. But when I was that close through Eau Rouge, I knew I was going to lift a little less than Lando. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Proud of my first lap. I had the same plan as Norris if I was second — I knew that was a likely decision for him, but the medium was the sensible tyre for me.' Norris, who started on pole but lost the winner's trophy to Piastri, said after the race, 'Oscar just did a good job, nothing more to say. Committed more through Eau Rouge, got the slipstream and the run. That was it, nothing else I could do at that point. Oscar deserved it today. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Oscar deserved it. I'll review my things, but still happy for the team — another 1-2, and our first 1-2 here in many, many years. ' Also Read: Belgian Grand Prix: Lando Norris clinches pole in Qualifying, Max Verstappen wins F1 Sprint Red Bull's Max Verstappen followed Piastri in fourth, and Mercedes' George Russell was fifth. Williams driver Alexander Albon finished sixth. Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton finished seventh despite starting from the pit lane.

IND vs ENG: Not even Virat Kohli! Ravindra Jadeja reaches historic milestone during 4th Test against England
India's Ravindra Jadeja plays (AP Photo/Jon Super) Team India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja continues to defy convention and statistics alike with a string of standout performances in England, further cementing his status as one of India's most complete cricketers. With his latest gritty half-century at Old Trafford, Jadeja now boasts nine 50+ scores in England, more than former stalwarts such as Virat Kohli (7), Ajinkya Rahane (7), Cheteshwar Pujara (6), and even the elegant VVS Laxman (5). India vs England rain, weather forecast: Can Shubman Gill-KL Rahul pull off stunning draw? Remarkably, he also averages higher than all of them in English conditions, a feat few would have predicted for a spin-bowling all-rounder once regarded primarily for his bowling. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! His awe-inspiring batting on the final day of the fourth Test came at a critical juncture. Alongside Washington Sundar, Jadeja stitched together an unbroken 150-run partnership that helped India wipe out England's massive 347-run first-innings lead. From 0-2 early in their second innings, India battled to 375-4 with a couple of hours remaining in the match, leading by 64 runs and grinding down an increasingly fatigued English attack. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Mini House for 60 sqm for Seniors with Toilet and Bath (Price May Surprise You) Pre Fabricated Homes | Search Ads Search Now Undo Shubman Gill's marathon 228-ball hundred, a new Indian record for most runs in a series against England (722), set the stage. Poll What do you think is the key to Jadeja's success in English conditions? Technical skill Mental toughness Adaptability But after his dismissal for 103, it was Jadeja, dropped first ball by Joe Root, who anchored the rear guard with poise and patience. His fifth fifty of the series came in style, slicing Ben Stokes to the boundary and celebrating with his trademark sword dance in front of jubilant India fans. As England's bowlers flagged, Stokes battling through pain, Archer probing for breakthroughs, and Root tossing in occasional spin, Jadeja remained firm. In English conditions where many Indian batters have historically struggled, Ravindra Jadeja has quietly built a record that now rivals, and in many cases surpasses, the legends.
