Joe Root-Jonny Bairstow Master-Classes vs India Help England Register Their Highest Successful Chase, Break Other Records
When India set England a 378-run target in the fourth innings of the fifth rescheduled Test in Edgbaston, few would have believed that it was possible. There were several reasons behind the thought. England had never chased down anything over 360 in the fourth innings of a Test before. But as things turned out, Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow scored unbeaten centuries to take England to a seven-wicket win with more than two sessions to spare on the fifth day of the Test match.
