IND vs ENG Live Score, 1st Test Match: England defeat India by 5 wickets, take 1-0 lead in five-match series
India vs England Live Score, 1st Test Day 5: Ben Duckett starred with a sublime 149 as England secured a five-wicket win over India in the first Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series at Headingley on Tuesday.
Set a formidable 371 to win, England chased down the target comfortably, ending on 373/5 in 82 overs to go 1-0 up in the five-match series.
Resuming Day 5 on 21 without loss, openers Duckett and Zak Crawley (65) put on a commanding 188-run stand, laying the perfect foundation. Duckett’s knock, full of authority and invention, kept England ahead even as India fought back with four wickets in the second session.
Jasprit Bumrah bowled a probing opening spell, while Shardul Thakur briefly lifted India’s hopes with the wickets of Duckett and Harry Brook in successive balls.
But Joe Root (53*) and debutant Jamie Smith (44*) combined for an unbroken 71-run stand to see England home with ease.
Smith sealed the win with a towering six off Ravindra Jadeja.
India will rue dropped chances and inconsistent bowling on a placid surface.
The second Test begins at Edgbaston, Birmingham, from July 2–6, with India needing a strong response to avoid falling further behind in the series.

IND vs ENG Live Score: LUNCH BREAK!
England dominated the morning session on Day 5, scoring 96 runs without loss in 24 overs to take firm control of their 371-run chase.
Openers Ben Duckett (64*) and Zak Crawley (42*) were solid and fluent, maintaining a scoring rate of four runs per over and frustrating the Indian bowlers.
Despite some probing spells from Jasprit Bumrah, India couldn't break through, with the rest of the attack offering little support.
The session ended with a brief moment of tension: Mohammed Siraj tried to rush through his final delivery in hopes of giving Bumrah one more over before lunch, but Crawley backed away just in time. Words were exchanged, but the England opener held his nerve — a small mental victory to cap a strong session.
England 117/0, need 254 more to win

IND vs ENG Live Score: Day 5 Pitch Report
"Overcast conditions will help the quicks. There isn’t much help for them on this surface because the grass has been shaved off and it looks like a dry, almost Indian surface. The footmarks created by the pacers will aid the spinners. Crucially, the ball will come on to the bat nicely and England will go for their shots. India will need to hold on to their catches. Otherwise they might be in for a disappointment" - Sunil Gavaskar

IND vs ENG Live Score: EQUATION - 90 overs | 350 runs | 10 wickets
The EQUATION is simple.
For England 90 overs and 350 runs
For India: 90 overs and 10 wickets
The match remains open to all possible outcomes, with tomorrow's predicted rainfall adding another layer of uncertainty. India's total of 364 was largely built around centuries from Rahul and Pant. Rahul displayed exemplary technique, executing textbook strokes and capitalising on loose deliveries with precision. Pant, true to his characteristic style, alternated between steadfast defence and explosive batting, particularly aggressive against the bowling attack.
Their partnership of 195 runs appeared to diminish England's chances of victory. However, Pant's dismissal, caught in the deep off Bashir's bowling, triggered a dramatic shift. The second new ball proved decisive as England claimed the final six wickets for a mere 31 runs. What initially seemed like an imposing target of 371 was made to appear more achievable, with England safely navigating to 21 without loss by the close of play.

IND vs ENG Live Score: Rishabh Pant reprimanded for breaching ICC code of conduct
Rishabh Pant has received an official reprimand from the ICC for showing dissent during the Headingley Test.

He was found guilty of breaching Article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct. No fine was imposed, but one demerit point has been added to Pant’s disciplinary record.
India still have the upper hand in the Test, but Pant’s actions drew attention for the wrong reasons this time.

There’s a thrill to Bazball — but there’s also a cost. Chasing 371 needs discipline too, not just aggression.
England have survived such chases only once here, which was the Stokes miracle of 2019.
This is bigger, harder, and more daunting. Stokes and McCullum want their men to attack, but facing Bumrah’s reverse swing, Jadeja’s spin and the pressure of a five-day chase is another level.
A record chase will immortalise Bazball and failure will remind them that Test cricket remains the ultimate exam.
