ENG vs IND 5th Test: Twitterati calls Team India “New Chokers” after 7 wicket defeat against England
ENG vs IND 5th Test: England registered a historic victory over Team India in the 5th Test match at Edgbaston. They registered a record chase of 378 runs in the second inning. This was the highest run chase of England and second-highest overall. Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow scored centuries in the second inning and helped England to reach the winning total.
However, some cricket fans are really not happy with the results as India was in total control of the match for the first three days. They had a good total against the hosts for the second inning but they failed to take the wickets. Many cricket fans are now calling the Indian cricket team “New Chokers” of Cricket.

England wins the match by 7 wickets after a breathtaking comeback?
The series ends in a draw but both sides will meet again in the T20I and ODI games in the coming weeks!?#W88 #W88India #W88IndiaOfficial #ENGvIND #TeamIndia pic.twitter.com/VtQ8ys2YpR
This England team makes me so happy. Not since the days of Andrew Strauss have I enjoyed watching England in the whites as much. Stuff of dreams. #ENGvIND

Even after all the Bazball & everything, England could not win the series in their home conditions.

England need to re-consider their ways of going about it.? #ENGvIND
Highest targets chased in Test cricket without losing more than 3 wickets :-

Such a shame this was the completion of last years series. If it was a one off test match India would’ve faced ANOTHER whitewash in 2022. #ENGvIND #ENGvsIND

Virat Kohli is a burden on team India.

Everyone knows he is a great better but his form is not with him.
It’s better that he goes and play domestic cricket to regain his confidence and form both!#ENGvIND

A scarcely believable turnaround.#ENGvIND
Eng have been excellent.

A chase that will be remembered for long.
Kudos to Root & Bairstow.?
India were abysmal with the bat & ball in the 2nd innings.
Fielding was bad, captaincy, poor.
This isn’t just a defeat.
This is much more.#ENGvIND#ENGvsIND#INDvsENG #EdgbastonTest
