England reached 339/6 in stumps at day 4 after the rain and brought a initial end for action in the oval. He needs just 35 more runs to win a series of 3–1. Jamie Smith (2*) and Jamie overtan (0*) are unbeaten batsmen at the crease.India, meanwhile, requires four wickets-only three if Chris Woakes is unable to bat due to his shoulder injury-to level the series 2-2.Vox, who was seen with his arm in a softening on Sunday, can only bat with one hand if he needs and possibly come to number 11.“There were such moments in the series – ups and downs. We managed to break the partnership. Unfortunately, we’ve come back in the rain, and we will come back tomorrow. You can’t take the risk of throwing into the towel. The key was to break the partnership and create a little pressure,” Morkel said.He said, “It is very wet. Ground staff is out of brake and incredible with everyone … It is out of our control. Hopefully boys get balls in the right areas,” he said.
