Virat Kohli viral tweet after India’s series win: Rohit Sharma-led ‘young Indian team’, after losing the series opener in Hyderabad, fought their way back to beat England in three consecutive Test matches to clinch the five-match IND vs ENG Test series 3-1 in Ranchi. Notably, this triumph marked India’s 17th consecutive home Test series win.

An ecstatic Virat Kohli took to X (formerly Twitter) to laud the young Indian team’s remarkable achievement. “YES!!! Phenomenal series win by our young team. Showed grit, determination, and resilience,” tweeted Kohli.

Cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar also showered praise on the young guns for ‘showing character and mental strength’.┬а

“India once again came back from a pressure situation and fought back to win the match. It shows the character and the mental strength of our players,” Sachin Tendulkar wrote in a Twitter post.

In absence of experienced players like Virat Kohli, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane, and KL Rahul, the young Indian squad stepped up and staged a solid comeback, securing a memorable series win.┬а

Opting to bat first after winning the toss, Ben Stokes-led England put up a total of 353 runs in their first innings, powered by a brilliant century from Joe Root.

In reply, India, buoyed by excellent half-centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal and Dhruv Jurel, reached a total of 307. England faltered in their second innings, collapsing for mere 145 runs. Consequently, India was set a target of 192 runs for the win, which they chased down in 60.6 overs on day 4 of IND vs ENG Ranchi Test, with five wickets remaining.
