The fourth match of the five-Test series between India and England will be played in Manchester from July 23. Forgetting the heartbreaking defeat at Lord's, Team India will be eager to make a strong comeback in Manchester and level the series 2-2.

India’s bowling attack performed very well in the last match, so once again, the focus of the fans will be on Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Akash Deep, and Washington Sundar.

However, apart from Ravindra Jadeja, no bowler from the current Indian squad has prior experience of bowling in Manchester.

Meanwhile, let’s take a look at those former Indian bowling legends who took the most wickets at this historic venue.

This Indian Holds Most Wickets in Manchester

Former Indian all-rounder Vinoo Mankad holds the record for taking the most wickets for India in Manchester.

Mankad played 2 Test matches here and picked up 9 wickets while bowling across 3 innings. His best performance at the venue was an impressive 7/146.

Apart from him, Abid Ali took 8 wickets while bowling in 4 innings of 2 matches, while Lala Amarnath also took 8 wickets, but in just 1 match. On the other hand, Subhash Gupte and Dilip Joshi claimed 6 wickets each, both in a single match at this venue.

If we talk about the current Indian squad, only Ravindra Jadeja has bowled in Manchester—he played 1 match and took just 1 wicket.

Eyes will be on Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah’s performance in this series has been exceptional so far. He picked up 5 wickets in the opening match.

After that, Jasprit was rested for the second Test match due to workload management. Following this, Bumrah made his comeback in the third match and once again displayed outstanding bowling.

Jasprit Bumrah took 5 wickets in the first innings of the Lord’s Test and then went on to take 2 more wickets in the second innings. In such a scenario, the team will be expecting a similar outstanding performance from Jasprit Bumrah in the Manchester Test as well.
