Persistent and determined India prevailed in a thrilling fifth Test match of the series against England to draw level 2-2 at the Oval on Monday (August 4) to walk out of the assignment with 28 points in the World Test Championship (WTC). India needed four wickets and England, 35 runs. With a pure batter in Jamie Smith in the middle and having taken the heavy roller, England would have fancied their chance to knock those 35 runs off, but under overcast skies, with ball moving all over the place and two bowlers with their tails up, the hosts fell short by just six runs.
