ENG Vs IND, 1st Test: All eyes on Virat Kohli, India needs 84 runs to clinch a historic victory in Birmingham
India needs 84 runs to clinch a historic victory on the third day of the first Test against England at Edgbaston cricket ground in Birmingham.
In six previous attempts at the venue, India lost five Tests and drew one. Overall, India have won just six Test matches in England.
Virat Kohli is waging lone battle as Indian top-order failed to fire for the second time in the first Test against England.
Ishant Sharma's fifer on English soil on friday helped India to bowl out the hosts for 180 in the second innings, leaving the visitor to chase 194 runs to registered the victory.
Ishant Sharma's stunning performance earned him praise from the master-blaster Sachin Tendulkar who hailed his fantastic effort and reckoned it reminded him of his famous 7/74 at Lord's in 2014.
