Speaking of the final day’s events, at the beginning of the fifth day of play, England needed to score 35 runs with four wickets remaining. India’s chances of winning that battle seemed quite slim. But Prasidh Krishna (4/126 in 27 overs) and Mohammed Siraj (5/104 in 30.1 overs) made sure the English missed their mark by six runs.
Siraj’s career-best 9/190 earned him Player of the Match, while captain Shubman Gill (754 runs in 10 innings) and Harry Brook (481 runs in 9 innings) won Player of the Series. Siraj ended up taking the most wickets for both teams with 23 in nine innings.
At Edgbaston (336 runs) and The Oval (six runs), India won the seires, and they valiantly drew the fourth Test in Manchester to salvage the series. They lost at Lord’s (22 runs) and Headingley (five wickets).
