The India captain, Shubman Gill, has strongly criticised some of England's behaviour during this Test series, describing it as not "what I would think comes in the spirit of the game".

England broke 'spirit of the game' in third Test, says Gill

On the eve of the fourth Test at Old Trafford, Gill was asked if he regretted confronting the England batter Zak Crawley during the previous match at Lord's, a moment that prompted England to decide, as Harry Brook put it on Monday, "to give them something back and not be the nice guys we have been in the last three or four years".

Gill's intervention came as the England openers tried - successfully as it turned out - to restrict India to bowling a single over during a seven-minute period at the end of the third day, using delaying tactics that included spotting convenient movement behind the sightscreen, and calling on the physio after being hit by the ball.
