Centuries by Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar send England-India series to fifth Test match decider at The Oval.
India, led by captain Shubman Gill, batted with great character to secure a hard-fought draw in the fourth Test against England and keep the series alive going into the final game.
After losing two wickets before they had scored a run in their second innings, India batted for over five sessions for the loss of two more wickets to end the match on 425-4 at Old Trafford in Manchester on Sunday.
A courageous hundred from Gill – his fourth of the series – and dogged unbeaten centuries from Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar – gave the home crowd little to cheer on a tough day five for England.
A closely fought series remains at 2-1 to England, and the hosts must avoid defeat in the final Test at The Oval in London, starting on Thursday, to win it.
