India debutant Stuart Binny's maiden fifty verified an attract with England the first Test at Trent Bridge on Sunday.
On a compliant pitch, a draw had constantly appeared the in all probability result thus it demonstrated as the first of this five-match arrangement finished in stalemate in front of Thursday's second Test at Lord's.
A draw had everything except been guaranteed after England's Joe Root (154 not out) and James Anderson (81) imparted a Test record tenth-wicket stand of 198, obscuring the 111 put on prior in the match by India's last-wicket pair of Kumar and Mohammed Shami (51 not out). (Matchcentre)
This result stretched out England's winless race to nine Tests - their most exceedingly awful grouping since they went 10 without triumph from 1992 to 1993 - and implied India had now gone 15 Tests without an away win.
The match was an inside and out triumph for 24-year-old India seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar who posted three Test-best exhibitions in making 58 and 63 not out divided by a return of five for 82.
"It was a good Test match for us, we managed to put pressure on them and then we held up well when we were under pressure," said India commander Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
"We haven't had a seaming all-rounder but Stuart Binny can be someone who can really contribute for us in the future."
Considering England's uncommon last-wicket stand, Dhoni included: "We tried a few things but the ball got soft and the bowlers got tired and I don't think there was much else we could have done."
England skipper Alastair Cook said he trusted for contributes with more them for the pace bowlers throughout the rest of the arrangement.
"We know we can put India under some pressure when we bat and we know we can put their top order under pressure. We just need a pitch with a bit of life in it."
After India continued on 167 for three in cloudy conditions on Sunday, they lost three wickets for 16 rushes to give England a good omen.
Stuart Broad, on his Nottinghamshire home ground, started the droop by taking two for no runs in five balls.
Expansive, who had been seriously condemning of the drowsy wicket, had Virat Kohli, pointing over the line, plumb lbw for his overnight eight.
The quick medium bowler then impelled Ajinkya Rahane (24) to edge straight to wicketkeeper Matt Prior.
