India register unwanted record in Tests despite heroic draw vs England in Manchester

MANCHESTER: Team India stayed alive in the five-match Test series against England as they managed to draw the fourth Test played at Old Trafford in Manchester. It was a heroic effort from the visitors as they batted out 143 overs in the second innings to keep England at bay. However, even then, the Shubman Gill-led side registered an unwanted record as India became the first team to not be able to win a single at a venue after playing 10 matches.

This was their 10th Test match at Old Trafford in Manchester and they are yet to register a single win at the venue. They have lost four matches and drew six after playing their first ever Test here back in 1936. Earlier, they were on level terms with Australia, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka in this aspect.

Notably, Australia are yet to win a Test match at the National Stadium in Karachi in nine matches from 1956. They have lost five times and drawn on four occasions in Karachi. Interestingly, Bangladesh have not been able to win a Test at the Bangabandhu National Stadium in Dhaka in nine appearances at the venue while Sri Lanka have been winless at the iconic Lord’s cricket stadium in London in nine Test matches.
