England up and running after thriller with India
About this episode
England have taken a 1-0 lead in their five test series with India after producing yet another sensational run chase at Headingley!
Jake, Nick and Will reflect on an unforgettable five days of test cricket and give big praise to England's batting lineup, and in particular Ben Duckett who hit 149 in his final innings to steer England to victory.
There's also praise for Ollie Pope who bagged himself a century and justification for Ben Stokes after he won the toss and elected to bowl first.
As for India, we ask if they threw away more than one opportunity to win the test match and what changes they could make to win the second test.
We also ask why Headingley has not been considered for an Ashes test in 2027 and we answer your questions as usual!
