The English fast bowler Josh Tongue was released from the England squad just four minutes before the fourth Test started at Manchester. According to a report of talkSport, Tongue left the venue during the Lunch break of Day 1 and is supposed to join his team, Nottinghamshire, in the ongoing County Championship match against Hampshire at the Utilita Bowl. The side made an official announcement on their X handle saying, "Following the beginning of the fourth Rothesay Test at Old Trafford, Josh Tongue has been released from England duty to play for Nottinghamshire. The fast bowler will join the ongoing match against Hampshire on arrival at Utilita Bowl." Notably, Nottinghamshire ended Day 1's play losing 5 wickets and scoring 319. Tongue will reach Southampton and join the team in the middle. Currently, Tongue's side sits in second place in the Division One table, while Hampshire is seventh. For England, he took 11 wickets in the first two Test matches against India. Well, after Jofra Archer came back in the team, he was benched. And when Liam Dawson substituted for injured Shoaib Bashir, Tongue was released.

The top-order laid a steady foundation with Yashasvi Jaiswal (58) and KL Rahul (46) building early momentum before both fell to Dawson and Woakes respectively. Skipper Shubman Gill was trapped lbw by Stokes for 12, while Sai Sudharsan continued his form with a resilient 61, before falling to a short ball from Stokes once again. A major concern for India came when Rishabh Pant, looking fluent on 37, was struck on the toe by a sharp Chris Woakes delivery. He retired hurt and had to be carried off the field. Ravindra Jadeja (19*) and Shardul Thakur (19*) then guided India to stumps safely. England's bowlers shared the workload, with Stokes standing out once more, but India will be content with their position.
