Pitch Report
The first glimpse of the Kennington Oval pitch ahead of the fifth Test suggests early movement for the pacers, which could raise concerns for India’s batting order. England has not included a single specialist spinner in their playing 11, which hints that grass can be expected in the pitch and fast bowlers can dominate. In such a situation, the role of toss is going to be very important.
