India vs England Highlights: Captain Shubman Gill and all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar slammed centuries on Day 5 of the 4th Test, as India secured a draw.
India batted more than five sessions to overturn a 311-run deficit and pull off an unprecedented draw against England in the fourth Test at Old Trafford. India were reduced to 0/2 in their second innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal and B Sai Sudharsan scoring ducks. However, captain Shubman Gill led India’s fightback, slamming his fourth century of the series. Gill and opener KL Rahul stitched a 417-ball partnership, with the latter scoring 90. After their dismissals, all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar completed centuries to take India to a draw, even refusing England captain Ben Stokes’ offer for a draw in order to reach their personal milestones. Stokes was named the ‘Player of the Match’ for scoring 141 runs and taking six wickets in the game. The draw leaves England with a 2-1 lead in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, heading into the final Test at the Oval.

India vs England : Ben Stokes wins Player of the Match
Ben Stokes is named the ‘Player of the Match’. For the second match in a row, the accolade goes to the England captain. 141 runs, 6 wickets (one fifer), and all while a problematic hamstring to deal with. One heck of a player.
