India’s Pacers Seal Thrilling Series Win Over England
India clinched a hard-fought series victory against England on August 4, 2025, denying the visitors a win that has eluded them since their 2018 home triumph. The final match saw a determined English fightback, but India’s pace attack proved too strong.
Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj spearheaded India’s bowling assault, delivering relentless spells that ultimately broke England’s resistance. Their exceptional performance overshadowed England’s valiant efforts.
England’s challenge was further hampered by an injury to all-rounder Chris Woakes on day one. The injury significantly impacted their bowling strategy, placing extra burden on Josh Tongue, Gus Atkinson, and Jamie Overton.
Woakes’ brief appearance at the crease, without facing a ball, highlighted England’s desperate late-game situation. Despite a spirited chase, England fell short, handing India a well-deserved series win.
This victory underscores India’s growing dominance in international cricket, particularly their prowess at home. The series win will undoubtedly boost India’s confidence ahead of future challenges.
