Twitterati Laud Virat Kohli and Co for Scripting Brilliant Comeback Win to Draw Level in the Series

India defeated England in the second Test by 317 runs to level the four-match series one each with two more games to go. Set a daunting target of 482, England were once again bundled out under 200 as the visitors managed just 164. England resumed day four’s play on 53 for three and soon found themselves in all sorts of trouble with Ravi Ashwin removing Daniel Lawrence in his first over of the day. India vs England 2nd Test 2021 Stat Highlights Day 4: Axar Patel Takes Five-Wicket Haul on Debut as Team India Register Their Fifth-Biggest Victory in Tests.

Captain Kohli

Another Comeback Win

Team Effort

Congratulations

In space of two overs, Axar Patel removed Joe Root and Olly Stone after the lunch break to complete his five wicket haul. Moeen Ali then played aggressively and managed to score 43 off 18 balls before Kuldeep Yadav had him stumped. Ravi Ashwin, who scored century in India’s second innings, picked three wickets to compliment his five-wicket haul earlier in the match. He was fittingly named as man of the match. The third Test will take place from February 24 onwards and it will be a day-night encounter.
