"You're asking someone who only believes in results. And I've always said that in the past as well. I believe in results. We're still 2-1 down in the series. This is an Indian team. Yes, there is an inexperience, but this is still the best Indian team right now. So for me, I think we're still down 2-1, and hopefully we can try and make it 2-2. It would be a great achievement," he added.
England is currently leading the five-match series 2-1, India will be eyeing to win the in fifth Test at The Oval to level the series to share the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, on the other hand England will look to bounce back and win the series 3-1.
