At the beginning of Day 5, a lot was riding on how Rishabh Pant bats with the tail as only India's pacers were left. However, the southpaw departed early and it seemed like India would fold easily.

Ishant Sharma also followed and it looked like the visitors would then throw the kitchen sink and collect whatever they could with Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah at the crease.

But what followed was simply sensational, as both Shami and Bumrah applied themselves brilliantly and added an unbeaten 89 runs for the ninth wicket. Mohammed Shami went on to score his second half-century in Test cricket and that helped India set a target of 271 for England with 60 overs to bowl.

The visitors got off to a dream start as both England openers returned to the pavilion without troubling the scorers. The hosts formed small partnerships but India kept on chipping away at them with wickets at regular intervals.

Joe Root's wicket was a big one and it looked like England would collapse and give India an easy win. However, there was some resistance first from Moeen Ali and then by Jos Buttler. Even when the last hour of the Test began two results were possible.

It looked like Buttler would take England to a draw, but Mohammed Siraj got him out and then picked up the last wicket in the same over to seal the win. India go 1-0 up in the series. The next Test is to be played at Leeds on August 25th.
