In a thrilling climax at The Oval, Team India, led by Shubman Gill, leveled the five-match Test series 2-2 against England. Defending 374, India clinched a six-run victory, courtesy of spectacular bowling performances from Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna who denied England a series win.

England, opting to bowl first, initially restricted India to 224, with Karun Nair contributing a pivotal fifty. However, bowling brilliance from Siraj and Krishna helped India bounce back, securing a slender 23-run lead. A solid batting display from Yashasvi Jaiswal, who struck a crucial century, set England a target of 374 after India declared at 396.

On the final day, England began at 339/6, needing 35 runs to win. Despite a fightback spearheaded by Joe Root and Harry Brook, Siraj's five-wicket haul and Krishna’s relentless pressure saw England falter at 367, showcasing one of India’s finest Test wins abroad.
