Yep! Coming off the field after 157 overs and facing a deficit in excess of 300. It was simply sensational and test Cricket at its finest. As Seymour Nurse was famous for saying when the game is big you bat big. Kudos India.

England could not survive 103 overs to earn a draw in the 2nd test where Bumrah was not even playing. india was a batsman short. One wicket away from getting blown away. It requires mental strength, discipline, technique to bat for 143 overs from 0/2
