IND vs ENG Pitch Report for 5th Test
The weather has taken a turn at the Kennington Oval, with light rain expected on at least three of the five days, including the opener quite the shift from the recent London heatwave. This season, every County Championship side chose to bowl first here, and the highest scores have typically come in the third innings. The lone exception was Surrey’s massive 820 after being sent in, but this pitch carries a different feel. With more live grass on the surface and England dropping their specialist spinner, seamers should find early help, especially under cloudy skies.
