The indian team won the Oval Test match against england by a thrilling 6 runs, leveling the 5-match series 2-2. In the absence of senior players, captain Shubman Gill, who led the young team, and the experienced player K.L. Rahul's contribution have led to this historic victory. Speaking after the victory of the match, K.L. rahul said with emotion that this victory is the most important in his cricketing career. In the final and fifth Test match held at the Oval, the indian team set a target of 374 runs for england to win. At the end of the fourth day's play, the england team was in a strong position.
 Centuries from Joe Root (105) and Harry Brook (111) almost ensured England's victory. But on the last day, the fiery bowling of mohammed siraj and Prasidh krishna changed the course of the game. In particular, Siraj was the main reason for England's collapse by taking 5 wickets. As a result, england lost all their wickets for 367 runs and lost by 6 runs. "This win is everything for me." Speaking after this thrilling victory, KL rahul said, "This win is everything for me. I have been playing cricket for a long time. We have won the Champions Trophy. I have also seen the indian team win the World Cup. But I think the way both the teams played in this series has answered many doubts and questions about whether Test cricket will continue." He continued, "When we were not given a chance to win this series, it was a big thing for us to fight in every match and draw the series 2-2.
It may seem like a draw, but it will be a starting point for the future of indian Test cricket. The indian team will win many series abroad from now on. The entire team deserves this victory." Talking about the absence of senior players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ashwin, rahul said, "Their absence created a void. It was only when the young players came to me and asked about the england environment that I realized my new responsibility. I decided to use my experience to guide the young players and stand up for the team." KL rahul praised young captain Shubman Gill and said, "Shubman Gill is a wonderful leader. He led the team from the front. He has worked hard with the players. He has done a good job in executing the plans. The changes he made have got us wickets. He will grow further as a leader. There is no doubt that he will take the indian Test team to great heights."
