Having won the first Test by successfully surpassing a target of 371 in Leeds, England will attempt to win the last and with it the series by chasing 374 at the Oval . If the statisticians and bookmakers don’t fancy their chances the team themselves are not just confident but “chilled” about the task they face on day four.
“It is a replay from Headingley,” said Josh Tongue. “It will be a great day of cricket and a great day for us if we get the runs. How we play as a batting unit is very positive and very exciting. The batting we’ve got, I can’t see why we can’t give it a good go. We’re pretty chilled. Not much overthinking about it. I don’t see why we can’t chase down these runs.”
