Gautam Gambhir, India’s head coach, offered a strident defence of his side as Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar – much to England’s annoyance – hit centuries in a bizarre finish to the drawn fourth Test at Old Trafford.
After Jadeja and Sundar batted resolutely to rule out an English win, Ben Stokes offered to shake hands with 15 overs remaining on day five. But with both batters approaching three figures – Sundar on 80, Jadeja on 89 – India continued to bat.
