Tensions are rising ahead of the fourth test between England and India at Old Trafford. India captain Shubman Gill said Tuesday that England had acted against the “spirit of the game” by delaying play in last week's heated third test at Lord’s.

India captain Shubman Gill has accused England of breaching the “spirit” of cricket with their supposed delaying tactics in the third Test at Lord’s.

England have made just one change from last time out with off-spinner Shoaib Bashir missing out after breaking a finger at Lord’s. He is replaced by spinner Liam Dawson, who is playing his first Test match in eight years, while Jofra Archer keeps his place after impressing on his long-awaited return.
