England need another 28 runs to win, with 5 wickets in hand. They should be proud of this win, as they managed to defeat one of the strongest teams in test cricket currently. Also, let's not forget the fact that they did this despite the absence of their strike bowlers. Mark Wood was not there in the squad, and so was Jofra Archer. But the younger England players rose to the occasion and gave strong support to the more experienced players. This was in sharp contrast to what happened with India, who were dependent on Bumrah and the top-order batsmen.

India lost because in second innings they relied only on KL Rahul and Pant batting, if remaining batsmen have scored some runs then target would be high for England. The English team got good start in second innings and rest of batting take over responsibility once the opening pair got out. It's a high scoring game as total 1673 runs were scored in both innings which is highest match aggregate for England vs India in Tests. It's a five match series and English camp will be happy to start the series by winning the test.
