India made its way for a difficult fight on 5 of the fourth Test at Old Trafford, but despite a mutual proposal from England, refused to settled Ravindra Jadeja for a draw, which triggered a stir. As the last hour reached, the match proceeded to a draw, England captain Ben Stokes offered a handshahek to shut down the competition. But Jadeja, leading a flexible fightback with Washington Sundar, rejected the proposal and pressurized the proposal. His determined century (India was 0/2 in its second innings), under immense pressure after the initial collapse, became a turn in India’s dialect to save the test. While Stokes later stated that his gesture was inspired by practicality, India captain Shubman Gill and head coach Gautam Gambhir stood firm behind Jadeja’s call to continue batting. Adding weight to that scene, former England captain Alastair Cook supported Jadeja’s decision as correct.

Cook said on the BBC Sport, “It was the right decision for him to, for the speed with which he is receiving it,” Cook said on the BBC Sport. “When you are in the field for 140 overs, you get frustrated. It’s a little disappointment for England, but I think India does this.” Cook said, “Five years down line, you look at the scorecard, you see two fantastic hundreds to save the game, as well as clearly as Gill-so this will forget about Harry Brook’s 37-meal-hour-hour ball.”
