Date: 27-31 July 2007

Day 5 (31 July 2007): Another away test win for India

The hard work over the last four days had paid off rich dividends. The Indians won the match by seven wickets. India needed another 21 overs to complete their fifth test match win against England.

The Indians lost three wickets to knock off the remaining 63 runs. But, that did not create any concern as England did not have enough on the board to defend. The current skipper Dravid and the former skipper Ganguly finished the game.

Result: India won by seven wickets and lead the series 1-0
Player of the match: Zaheer Khan

1st innings:
England 198 (Cook 43, Zaheer 4 for 59, Kumble 3 for 32)

2nd innings:
England 355 (Vaughan 124, Collingwood 63, Zaheer 5 for 75, Kumble 3 for 104)
