India created history at Edgbaston, thrashing England by a massive 336-run margin—their biggest overseas Test win by runs and their first-ever victory at Edgbaston. Captain Shubman Gill led from the front with a phenomenal 430-run match performance, earning him the Man of the Match, while fast bowlers Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj dismantled England with 17 wickets between them. After the loss, England captain Ben Stokes pointed to two critical moments that cost his team the match—failing to finish India off at 200-5, and a collapse at 80-5 in reply. Meanwhile, Gill believes this Indian side has what it takes to win the series from here, praising his bowlers and calling this one of the best Indian teams to tour England. He highlighted Akash Deep’s fiery Day 4 spell as the turning point that gave India the belief to push for victory.
