England to Face World Record Chase as India Lead Grows to 484 at Edgbaston
- India leads England by 484 runs at Edgbaston on the fourth afternoon of the second Test in 2025, setting a daunting target for the final innings.
- India established their dominant position with Shubman Gill delivering a stellar 269 in the first innings, followed by a not-out hundred in the second innings.
- Gill brought up his 16th half-century in Test cricket by flicking Josh Tongue before hitting a six that pushed India's lead beyond 400, contributing to a 100-run stand off 92 deliveries and maintaining his strong captaincy form.
- England scored 407 in their first innings and have historically completed the highest fourth-innings chase at Edgbaston, 378 runs against India in 2022, placing pressure on the current pursuit.
- England faces an unprecedented challenge as India aims for a target near 500, and Ben Stokes' side pledged to chase any target rather than settle for a draw, making the finish crucial.
