Friday continues the favourable trend. It will be slightly warmer with a high of 24°C.
A mix of sun and high clouds early on could give way to more cloud cover later in the day but with just a 6% chance of rain, it looks like another day of uninterrupted cricket.
Saturday, July 5: What is the weather forecast for Day 4 in Edgbaston?

Sunday, July 6: What is the weather forecast for Day 5 in Edgbaston?
The final day could be touch-and-go. Morning rain are very likely till 11 am. The precipitation is expected to drop thereafter.

Will the weather affect the outcome of Edgbaston Test?
While two out of the five days look good for cricket, rain on Days 1, 4, and 5 could reduce playing time. If both teams manage strong sessions on the clearer days, a result is still possible.
But if showers on Saturday and Sunday are heavier than expected, a draw cannot be ruled out.
