England on Sunday registered their highest-ever successful chase in the fourth innings of a Test match with their seven-wicket win over India in the rescheduled fifth and final match. The game at Edgbaston, Birmingham saw a superb comeback from the hosts as they won it despite conceding a first-innings lead of 132 runs to India. In the final innings of the match, England needed to chase down 378 runs and they did that quite easily, courtesy of unbeaten centuries from Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow.
BIRMINGHAM: Everything you know about Test cricket is wrong.

It was the latest example of 'Bazball' in action, with a seven-wicket win in Birmingham England's fourth successful chase in as many Tests under a new leadership duo of coach Brendon McCullum and captain Ben Stokes following a 3-0 whitewash of Test world champions New Zealand. That series saw England chase down seemingly stiff targets of 277, 299 and 296.

In all three instances, the rival teams have notched up seven-wicket victories. Does it merit a debate on whether this is indeed the best attack?
