Nearby 4th npower Test: England v India

- Visitor Information
The series comes to a climax back in London at The Kia Oval as England host India in the 4th Test Match. Depending on how the series has gone up to this point, this could well be a crucial game and one which will have a huge say on the final outcome of the series. It won't just be the series coming to an end, however. Indian batting legends Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman will all likely be making their final Test appearances in England. With around 35,000 career runs between them, they'll certainly leave a void on the world game when they retire and this is an excellent opportunity for English fans to catch one last look at them at their best. About The Kia Oval Cricket Ground
Though it does not have quite the same kudos as Lord's, The Kia Oval (known so because of a sponsorship deal, but usually referred to simply as The Oval) is in many ways just as pleasant to watch a day's cricket. Test matches against the West Indies and teams from the Indian subcontinent are particularly atmospheric, with south London's large ethnic minority populations turning out in force to support their heroes.
