The fourth Rothesay Test between England and India begins on July 23 at Old Trafford, Manchester. India’s narrow loss in the third Test has turned this match into a virtual do-or-die contest.

Old Trafford, located south of Manchester city centre, forms a famous sporting duo with the “other” Old Trafford. It has hosted Test matches since 1884, making it one of England’s oldest cricket grounds. Originally opened in 1857 as the home of the Manchester Cricket Club, it has served as the home ground of Lancashire County Cricket Club since 1864. During British rule, the Indian city of Kanpur was referred to as the “Manchester of India” due to its remarkable industrial growth.
