Stokes was very emotional at the end as said on the commentary , proper pitch,not flat tracks , give the ball the advantage , use dukes ball .

Great bowling by both teams, England need catching practice as those dropped catches in first innings could have cost them dearly in this test !
Curran deserves MOM.
No Stokes next game though ?

Had a feeling that the tail wagging in England's 2nd innings might just be crucial.
A wicket that definitely favoured the bowlers and little wonder it finished early, again.
After Kohli's dismissal looks like India went to pieces.

Fantastic test match. 20/20 is good to watch but test match cricket played in conditions like that and in that manner, is the pinnacle. If Test matches like that were on terrestrial tv, I don’t think you’d have an issue with sparking interest amongst the younger generation
