'There's nothing like...' Rishi Sunak says he's 'gutted for England' after India's Test win

After India clinched the fina Test against England, former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said "there is nothing like" Test cricket over five days.

Sachin Tendulkar rated the performance of the "SUPERMEN from INDIA" a perfect 10 as he posted on X, "Test cricket... absolute goosebumps."

Virat Kohli, who quit the Test format, posted that it was Siraj and Prasidh Krishna's the resilience and determination that led India to victory. "Special mention to Siraj who will put everything on the line for the team. Extremely happy for him," he added.

“Words fail me….WHAT A WIN! 🇮🇳🏏 Absolutely exhilarated & ecstatic for #TeamIndia on their series-clinching victory against England! The grit, determination, and passion on display were simply incredible. This team is special,” he wrote on X.
