India Aim To Break Edgbaston Curse

Riding on Shubman Gill's sensational 269, India are closing in on a victory at Edgbaston. The visitors have reduced England to 153/6 and with only 80 overs to play on the final day, they might have a tough task to cut out. Akash Deep's inclusion to the team proved to be a massive bonus and the pacer has been in the form of his life. He took four wickets in the second innings running through the defence of the English top order.

There was severe criticism after India dropped Jasprit Bumrah but his absence hasn't really affected India's plans. Despite Jamie Smith and Harry Brook's heroics, the visitors bowled out England for 407 runs in the 1st innings. India have lost seven and drawn one Test at Edgbaston, and under Shubman Gill's guidance, they could finally break the curse as it stands.
