The five-match Test series between India and England concluded with remarkable individual and team performances, notably from Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj. Siraj ended the series with 23 wickets, tying with Jasprit Bumrah for the most by an Indian bowler in a Test series in England.
India's nail-biting six-run victory at the Oval set a record for their narrowest Test win in terms of runs. The series also saw India amass the highest total of 3,809 runs in a five-match Test series. This series extended England's winless streak against India to four consecutive series since 2018.
England's Joe Root became a history-maker, equalling Sunil Gavaskar for the most centuries against India in Tests, while Shubman Gill shone brightly, breaking the record for the most runs in a Test series between the two nations. The series ended with a 2-2 draw, but left a lasting impact in cricketing annals.
