Manchester, England |August 4, 2025|SKY LINK TIMES
In a nail-biting finish, India Beats England by just six runs in a historic Test match — the narrowest victory margin ever recorded by India in the format. The thrilling encounter saw both sides battling hard at Old Trafford, with the hosts coming agonisingly close, thanks to a valiant, injury-ridden effort from Chris Woakes.
Wakes, battling through visible discomfort, played a gritty knock that almost turned the tide in England’s favour. However, India’s bowling unit held their nerve in the final session, snatching victory from the jaws of a draw — or even a loss.
This six-run win surpasses India’s previous narrowest Test victory (by 10 runs against Australia in 1980) and cements this match as one for the cricketing history books. Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav played crucial roles with the ball on Day 5, while Virat Kohli’s first-innings 92 laid the foundation for India’s defence.
Match Summary:
India: 312 & 214
England: 305 & 215
Result: India won by 6 runs
