Tense Final Day at The Oval
England began the day at 339/6, needing only 35 runs to win the match and seal the series. However, Mohammed Siraj struck early and removed Jamie Smith, putting the pressure back on the home side. Just an over later, Siraj struck again, trapping Smith in front of the stumps and bringing India closer to a memorable win.
Prasidh and Siraj Seal the Game
Prasidh Krishna then joined the attack and bowled out Josh Tongue for a duck. With only one wicket left, India could sense a win. Chris Woakes, who had injured his hand, came out to bat with his right hand wrapped up and had to face the bowlers batting left-handed.
