Leeds, June 24 -- Ben Duckett's masterful 149 set the tone for a historic run chase as England chased down the target of 371 to defeat India by five wickets at Headingley. With the win, England take a 1-0 lead in the five-match Test series.

Resuming on the final day with all ten wickets intact, England displayed clinical composure throughout the chase. They were well-placed at 269/4 by Tea, with captain Ben Stokes and Joe Root putting together a steady 49-run stand.

England reached the 300-run mark in the 66.4 overs, but just after that milestone, Stokes perished for 33, attempting a reverse sweep off Ravindra Jadeja that found Shubman Gill. That proved to be India's only breakthrough in the final session. England were 302/5.
