At one point, India's 364-run total, supported by contrasting hundreds from KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant, appeared insurmountable. While Pant combined patience with bursts of attacking genius, Rahul played with clinical precision. Before Pant was dismissed off Shoaib Bashir, their 195-run partnership seemed to have ended England's hopes. The target was reduced to 371 after England took six wickets for 31 with the second new ball.
