Shardul Thakur on Rishabh Pant: It was always our plan to have Rishabh back on the field. He was in a lot of pain. Kudos to the medical team to have him back. He has done amazing things for us in the past and again he did amazingly today.

Shardul on India’s bowling on Day 2: We could have been better with the new ball. It wasn’t difficult for the bowlers, we could have shown more patience and stick to the channel.

Shardul: What Rishabh Pant showed today is unmatched. This moments test the grit of the players and this what keeps Rishabh away from this pain. He has a high tolerance level as far as pain is concerned.

Gautam Gambhir in response to England’s reaction when they offered for a draw towards the gag end of the day: “If someone was batting on 99 and the other on 90, don’t you think they deserved their centuries. Would England have not done that?”

Gautam Gambhir on substitutes for external injuries: If umpires and referees can see that there is an external injury of such extent they should allow a substitute:

Gautam Gambhir’s typical reply on history, comparisons to his Napier knock: “This team will not follow anyone and doesn’t want to follow. They want to fight for the common man back home. The way people had written us off before the start of the game, this is the foundation of

Typical Gautam Gambhir press conference, goes ballistic right at the start. #INDvsENG

Ben Stokes: Pain (smiles) is just an emotion.

Ben Stokes: As this game progressed, it became harder and harder for the right-handers to bat on. For Washington and Jadeja, we may not have been very threatening. But credit to Jadeja and Sundar, the way they batted and take their team to a position where they are in with this

Ben Stokes on if he is fit to play the next Test: “Don’t want to eat my words but the likelihood of me not playing the next game is very unlikely.”

The other view from Ben Stokes: Absolutely ridiculous to have conversation around injury replacements. There are too many loopholes. I can stick something up my arse and ask for a replacement bowler.
