London (UK), July 13, 2025 (ANI): On India vs England 3rd Test Match, England's bowling coach Tim Southee said, “...It was a great three days of cricket, with a more old-fashioned style in the early days. The guys kept energy out of the ball, dismissing India's scores. We're heading into a crucial shootout in the coming days... Bowlers are tired today, with intermittent inconsistency in both bowling and batting. Despite the hot three days and a good forecast, some surface deterioration is expected later... It's been a good, great series so far. I think both sides have played some good cricket, and there's been a good spirit. Tonight was just a bit of energy toward the end of the day. It's been three days, and it's good to see the energy still there from both sides...”

00:00I think it's been a great three days of cricket, probably a little bit more old-fashioned sort of test cricket the first couple of days.
00:06But I think, yeah, the way the guys kept the energy up with the ball and we're able to dismiss India level scores
00:14and we're heading into a great sort of shootout over the next couple of days.
00:17And you've played here a few times, you know roughly what the script is around here.
00:22Does it look like the pitch is starting to offer a bit and maybe the game will advance on in these next few sessions?
00:30Yeah, I think we saw today as the bowlers sort of tore it away, there's moments there where there's a bit on off for the ball.
00:38But we also saw with batters that were in, it was nice to bat as well.
00:42So I think with three very hot days and another good day forecast tomorrow,
00:47there should be a little bit of deterioration throughout the surface at some stage.
00:53It seemed like kind of emotions bubbled over a little bit there.
00:57Have you felt, has there been a sense that that's kind of building towards that kind of flashpoint in this series so far
01:03or has relations been quite friendly?
01:06No, I think it's been a good, great series so far.
01:09I think both sides have played some good cricket and in a good spirit.
01:14And I think tonight was just a bit of energy towards the end of the day.
01:17It's been a long three days and it was good to see the energy still there from both sides.
