The first Test match is played between Nottingham and India. The fifth and final day of the Test will begin on Sunday. This time India is holding the Test match strongly. Australian Test spinner Shane Warne has announced the winners of the Test match before the start of the last day’s game. Warne believes India can win this Test and take a 1-0 lead in the series.
Warne tweeted, “It’s the best Test in Nottingham so far. It was the best batting line I have ever seen and I am happy that he has scored a century.
A terrific Test match so far at Knots. Shame Eng has not scored 50 or played a spinner yet – because it could be an interesting day 5. India is great and they are a well balanced team and 1 go up! The best I’ve ever seen @ Route 66 Play and be glad that they converted to 100! @ Sky Cricket
