IND vs ENG: England's record at Edgbaston ahead of 2nd Test against India; all you need to know
As England prepare to face India in the second Test of the ongoing five-match series, the historic Edgbaston ground in Birmingham presents a formidable backdrop, where the hosts have traditionally enjoyed a significant edge.

With an average of 35.33 runs per wicket and 3.13 runs per over, England have often controlled the pace of games at this ground. Their highest team total here stands at a commanding 710, while their lowest is 89, showing that conditions can turn sharply depending on overhead and pitch factors.
The pitch at Edgbaston has historically assisted seamers, especially under cloudier skies. India, meanwhile, will remember their famous 2022 chase of 378, where Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja starred, even though England eventually took the game. But across the broader history, Edgbaston has largely remained a fortress for the hosts.
With a 1-0 lead over the visitors thanks to a thrilling win at Headingley, Ben Stokes' side will look to make the scales tip further in their favour.
With both teams eager to seize the momentum, Edgbaston’s numbers tell one story — but conditions and current form may script another.
