ENG vs IND: 4th Test, Day 5, Stats Review: Bumrah, Kohli rewrite record books

After numerous twists and turns, India defeated England by 157 runs in the fourth Test match. It was indeed a remarkable victory as not many backed the visitors to even save the game after they got bundled out for 191 runs in the first innings. However, as the saying goes, the only thing certain in cricket is uncertainty. India scripted a remarkable comeback and thrashed the Three Lions at the Kennington Oval in London. With this, Virat Kohli’s men have also gained an unassailable 2-1 lead in the five-match series.

Meanwhile, here are the important stats and numbers from the England vs India 4th Test Day 4:

1 – Virat Kohli became the first Indian captain to register three Test wins on England soil.

10 – Kohli now has 10 Test wins against England as captain, fifth-most for any player.
