The visitors have had their chances in the series, but have failed to capitalize on the same. As a result, they are trailing in the five-match series. However, India would be buoyed by their batting performance in the second innings in Manchester. The way they saved the Test was a moral victory for them.

The workload of four grueling Tests has taken a toll on players from both sides. England will be without their talismanic skipper Ben Stokes, who has been ruled out of the final Test due to a shoulder injury. Jofra Archer has also not been picked. For India, Jasprit Bumrah is unlikely to feature at The Oval, while keeper-batter Rishabh Pant was earlier ruled out due to a foot fracture.
