Indian team suffered a forgetful defeat in the 5th and the final match of the Test series against England to end the series in a 2-2 draw after the first match had ended in a draw.

It was time for the Men in Blue to take revenge and what a performance it was from them. Batting first after winning the toss, Rohit Sharma gave India a great start where India scored with over 10 runs per over for almost 8 overs.

Though India lost 2 wickets in the powerplay, they displayed attacking instinct. Rohit Sharma scored 24 runs while Deepak Hooda displayed his attacking abilities hitting Moeen Ali for a back-to-back boundaries.

But, even though India were playing with attacking mindset, they kept on losing wickets at the crucial times and that brought in Hardik Pandya to the crease at just 11.5 overs.

Hardik though had a great outing with the bat, scoring 51 runs from 33 balls to help India post a target of 199 runs. However, his performance with the ball was the most notable one. Pandya took 4 wickets with the ball in his 4 overs and gave away 33 runs.
