England fast bowler Josh Tongue has set his sights on securing a victory against India on the decisive fifth day of the first Test. England wrapped up day four at 21 without loss, requiring 350 more runs to triumph and gain a 1-0 advantage in the five-match series.
A successful run chase would represent England's second-highest achievement in Test cricket, as well as the second-best record at this venue. Tongue, firm in his approach, stated, "No. Just go for the win. That's the clear message in the changing room."
Tongue, known for his ability to tackle the opposition's lower order, also earned the nickname 'The Mop' for his skill. He clinched three wickets in four deliveries, dismissing India's numbers eight, nine, and 10 consecutively.
