India has posted a total of 364 in their second innings on Day 4, setting England a daunting target of 371 runs to chase down at Headingley. This follows India\u2019s first innings total of 471 and England\u2019s reply of 465, leaving the visitors with a lead of 370 runs going into the final innings.<\/p>\n
Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul led the Indian charge again, with Pant smashing his second century of the match\u2014118 off 140 deliveries\u2014becoming only the second wicketkeeper in Test cricket history to score hundreds in both innings of a Test. KL Rahul added a resilient 137 off 247 balls. The duo\u2019s stellar partnership set the foundation before India lost wickets in quick succession.<\/p>\n
England\u2019s bowling attack was led by Josh Tongue, who claimed three wickets including crucial blows at the tail, while Shoaib Bashir also picked up three, including the final wicket of Prasidh Krishna, who was caught at deep mid-wicket for a duck.<\/p>\n
As it stands, England will need to script one of the most memorable chases in Test history. The highest successful chase at Headingley remains 404 by Australia in 1948, and more recently, England chased 359 in a miraculous win over Australia in 2019.<\/p>\n
