Gautam Gambhir is best remembered for his calm and calculated demeanor in the dressing room. But on Monday, August 4, the normally unruffled Indian head coach was unable to contain himself when Shubman Gill-led team stunned England in an awe-inspiring victory in the fifth Test at The Oval. With four wickets to take India down and 35 runs still required for England to win the series, the high-pressure situation brought out a side of Gambhir that one is not accustomed to seeing.

But Mohammed Siraj turned the game in India's direction by knocking over Jamie Smith and Overton in quick succession. Prasidh Krishna later joined the bandwagon, destroying Josh Tongue's stumps to leave India on the verge of a legendary victory. The BCCI subsequently made a behind-the-scenes video clip of the dressing room available, featuring Gambhir clapping with urgency, issuing commands to the fielders, and pacing anxiously as England's final stand, Gus Atkinson and injured Chris Woakes, fought back. On finally bowling out Atkinson to wrap up the match, Gambhir jumped for joy, hugging Morne Morkel, Sitanshu Kothak, and T Dilip before storming onto the pitch to join the players in celebration.

BCCI Plans to End Pick-and-Choose Culture After IND-ENG Tests Siraj’s Nine-Wicket Heroics Seal Win and Redemption India's hero was the passionate fast bowler Mohammed Siraj, who was awarded Player of the Match for his incredible performance. Siraj was the spark behind the collapse of England on the last day of the match, grabbing a match-altering five-wicket haul in the second innings and nine wickets in total from the match. His spell on Day 5, in which he claimed three wickets for a paltry nine runs, torn apart England's tail and clinched victory for India. This moment marked a powerful redemption for the pacer, who had endured a rough patch, including a costly dropped catch of Harry Brook on Day 4. Siraj, who was the top wicket-taker of the series with 23 victims, displayed terrific mental strength to comeback. The last over of the game, in which he bowled Gus Atkinson with a blistering yorker, sent him and his team mates into delirious ecstasy, an appropriate finale to a series which will be remembered for its nail-biting finish and the advent of a new generation of Indian heroes.
