Tom Hartley is England's hero in dramatic Hyderabad Test win over India

England showed that "Bazball" cricket is here to stay as they pulled off one of the greatest Test wins in modern times in Hyderabad on Sunday.

Ben Stokes's team were behind India in the opening match of the five-Test series for most parts but a sensational second-innings 196 from Ollie Pope breathed life into the team, presenting India with a dangerous target of 231.

It did not seem much at the time, but debutant spinner Tom Hartley made sure it was more than enough as the tourists dismissed the Indians for 202 in the penultimate over of the day to secure a famous 28-run win that will go down as one of the most stunning comebacks in Test cricket.

Hartley had been taken to task in the first innings by India's batsmen, hoping to bat England out the match and apply pressure on them with their spin trio of Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel.

But it was Hartley (7-62) who trumped them all, even without full-fledged support from senior spinner Jack Leach, who played most of the match with an injured knee.

England had fallen so far behind around the halfway mark, only the margin of defeat seemed to be up for debate.

But "Bazball" was not going to give up, showing even greater intent in the face of sustained pressure from India and a 190-run deficit in the second innings.

Tom Hartley’s selection might not have happened without the use of technology.
