2. India’s First Series Win In 1971 Against England At Oval:
Arguably, playing against the best team in that Era, Indian players under the dynamic leadership of Ajit Wadekar had drawn first two Test in Lord’s and Old Trafford respectively, as the third and final Test saw the dramatic end to the series with the visitors claiming their first-ever Test series win in England by 1-0, after riding on the brilliance of Bhagwat Chandrasekhar, who bagged six wickets to rattle out England on 101 in the second innings.
The impressive show from India has England on its knees even after trailing by 71 runs in the first innings.
India chased down the target of 172 (174), for six in 101 overs.
The leg-spinner claimed eight wickets in the match on a pitch which offered a little assistance to slow bowlers.
