And that, Ladies & Gents, is the true essence of Test Cricket. A flawless counterattack when it mattered most. By Jove, it seemed India had this in its kitty.

That is, until both the second innings.

“And that has made all the difference.”

Crazy

Crazy and unbelievable cricket from England. The first team in Test history to chase 250+ targets in four consecutive matches. 277, 296, 299 against New Zealand and now 378 against India. #BazBall

Disappointed Fan

This loss hurts because we didn’t even force England into bazzball, it was a cakewalk for them. Defensive mindset & weak strategy by Rahul Dravid & captain Jasprit Bumrah. #INDvENG #IndvsEng

Captain Responsible?

No disrespect to Jasprit Bumrah , but imagine if Rishabh Pant or KL Rahul would have captained this match. Cricket Twitter would have gone crazy. #INDvENG
