In the second innings of the first Test match, England started off with a lead of just 13 runs. They were looking to put up a large total to defend in the last innings. But at the fall of the seventh wicket, they only had a lead of 100 runs to show. India would have been very happy as their chasing record overseas was very poor.

But then Sam Curran threw caution to the wind and starting attacking the Indian bowlers as he had realized that he did not have enough time left to bat with the tail. In the end, this innings proved to be the difference between the two sides as India lost by just 31 runs.
