Day 5 of the 2nd Test between India and England at Edgbaston was disrupted again by rain, frustrating India’s hopes of a historic victory. India, led by Shubman Gill, need 7 wickets to win and level the series 1-1, while England are 72/3, chasing an improbable 608. Heavy rain before play and repeated interruptions led to lost overs despite ground staff efforts. Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar criticized the poor drainage and ground management, stating, “It’s unacceptable for a venue like Edgbaston.” India are aiming to end a 58-year wait for a Test win at this venue.
