President Kovind, Sehwag, AB Congratulate Team India on Series Win

The fall of Dan Lawrence saw India prevail in the Test series against England by 3-1. England had tallied a total of 205 runs in the first innings and the host replied with 365 runs, which featured a scintillating Rishabh Pant century and a 96-not out by Washington Sundar.

England unable to answer the humongous total set by India lost all their wickets after scoring 135 runs. The two star Indian spinners, R Ashwin and Axar Patel, bagged five wickets each as India claimed victory in the third session of the third day. After being down in the series by 1-0, India pulled off a fantastic comeback to win the series.

The victory also saw India top the ICC World Test Championship table and will now play New Zealand at the final of the Championship, at the Lord’s Stadium on 18 June.

Axar Patel, who debuted in this Test series, picked 26 wickets in just three Test Matches. The Test series also saw the likes of Washington Sundar and Rishabh Pant step up their batting game and provide more stability to the tail end.

The English fought hard, but eventually Virat Kohli’s side turned out to be too good for England and this is how Twitter congratulated them:

I feel delighted that I had the opportunity to inaugurate the magnificent stadium where the first two test matches have seen India win. My best wishes to all the players for their excellent performance in the final.

Kohli’s leadership this test match allowed young guns like Axar, Rishabh and Washie to play with freedom and dominate the game. It takes a special leader to elevate other players around them through body language and passion when their personal performance has been down.

India have been far too good ... the last 3 Tests they have absolutely hammered England ... If they can win in England they are without doubt the best Test team of this era ... but that will take some doing against the swinging ball ... #INDvENG
