Oval Test: England have done special things, certainly believe we can win, says all-rounder Chris Woakes

Oval Test: England all-rounder Chris Woakes said the team is confident of chasing down 368 and winning the 4th Test against India on what promises to be a cracking contest on Day 5. England went to Stumps on Sunday at 77 for 0, needing 291 more to script a stunning win.
England have never chassed down as many as 368 runs in the fourth innings of a Test match but all-rounder Chris Woakes backs the team to pull off an "incredible effort" against India on Day 5 of the ongoing 4th Test at Oval, London. The placid pitch and the good start given by England openers in the 4th innings have given the hosts confidence to go for the win, according to Woakes. England need their highest-ever successful run chase and the 10th highest-ever chase if they are to get to 368 after India made 466 in their 2nd innings in the Oval Test. Notably, England scripted their highest-ever successful chase only 2 years ago in Leeds when Ben Stokes single-handedly helped them gun down 362 against Australia in the Ashes.More Related News
