India Vs England, 1979
India nearly pulled off an astonishing win over England in London in 1979 after being asked to chase 438 to win the match and save the series. Sunil Gavaskar hit 221 after opening the batting in the last-innings effort and helped India to within nine runs of victory. A target of 15 from the last over -- the 151st of India's chase -- was only just too much as an immense five-day test came down to only a handful of runs.
