India crush England by 337 runs to level series with historic win at Edgbaston

India recorded a dominant 337-run win in the second Test after dismissing England for 271 in their second innings on the final day here on Sunday.

With the thumping win — India’s first-ever in Tests at Edgbaston — Shubman Gil and Co. levelled the five-match series 1-1.

Resuming the day at 72 for 3, England were reduced to 153 for 6 by lunch, with India’s bowlers maintaining relentless pressure.

The hosts were eventually bowled out in the second session, never posing a real threat to India’s mammoth 608-run target.

Pacer Akash Deep (6/99) picked his maiden five-for in Tests. He rocked England early striking twice in a rain-delayed morning session.
