Historical, dramatic, unbelievable, heroic. Adjectives will fall short if you ask an Indian cricket fan about the team's recent win against England in the Oval Test. A young team under the leadership of Shubman Gill did the unthinkable as they defended 35 runs on Day five and drew level in the inaugural edition of the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy.

In a video released by the BCCI on their social media, the winning moment shows the raw emotion of the dressing room. Notably, it was a cliffhanger of a game, and it kept everyone on the edge of their seats till the last moment.

India Steal A Win From The Jaws Of Defeat

At the beginning of the fifth day, England needed 35 runs to win the match and take the series. India needed four wickets to win the game. As the day progressed, the Indian bowlers started creating pressure and dismissing the English batters one by one. 

At the fall of the ninth, Chris Woakes walked out to bat with a dislocated shoulder. The fight continued between Gus Atkinson and when they needed just seven more runs to win one of the greatest matches in Test history, Mohammed Siraj struck. He uprooted the stumps of Atkinson to record a stunning win for the visitors. 

Fans Elated To See Gautam Gambhir Celebrating

At this exact moment, the video shows the emotions of the support staff and reserve players in the dressing room. Gautam Gambhir could be seen breaking into a wild celebration, hugging the other members. The Indian head coach is not known to be too expressive. The fans were excited to see Gambhir's emotions take the centre stage in the clip. 

The video was once again an example of the unity and bond within the team. It also shows how important the England tour was for this team. The emotions in the clip speak more than a thousand words; it will stay as one of the mementoes of this memorable and thrilling series.
