27 Jun 2025

England and India have played some high-voltage Test matches at the Edgbaston Stadium in Birmingham over the years.

The venue has been a challenge for numerous visiting players.

Despite the seam-friendly pitches and challenging conditions, several Indian batters have managed to leave a mark here.

On this note, let's look at India's highest team totals at the iconic venue in Tests.

416/10 in 2022

Centuries from Ravindra Jadeja (104) and Rishabh Pant (146) helped India post 416/10 while batting first in the 2022 Edgbaston Test.

Notably, the visitors were reeling at 98/5 when the duo joined each other. They added 222 runs to power India.

Despite their efforts, England won this high-scoring contest, having chased down 378 in the fourth innings.

This remains their highest-successful chase in Tests.

390/10 in 1986

India posted 390/10 while batting second in the 1986 Edgbaston match.

Eight of India's top-nine batters scored 23 or more as Mohinder Amarnath (79) and Mohammad Azharuddin (64) were the ones to cross the 50-run mark.

The visitors were also powered by four partnerships of 50 or more. The game, meanwhile, ended in a draw.

297/10 in 1979

The only other occasion of India recording a 280-plus total at this venue came in 1979.

Responding to England's first innings score of 633/5d, the visitors posted 297/10 as Gundappa Viswanath's 78 and Sunil Gavaskar's 71 powered them.

Five other Indian batters crossed the 20-run mark in that innings as India posted a decent score.

England, however, eventually recorded an innings triumph.
