2- Number of India bowlers to take five-wicket hauls in the fourth innings of Tests in England , including Jasprit Bumrah in this match. Ishant Sharma had taken 7 for 74 at Lord's on the last tour in 2014 which is the only other instance. Bumrah took three wickets in three overs with the second new ball to move India closer to victory.
7- Catches taken by KL Rahul in this Test - the most by any non-wicketkeeper in a Test in England and the joint second-most by an India fielder in any Test.
1- The Trent Bridge Test has provided the first ever instance of two players from the same team taking seven or more catches in a Test. Rahul claimed seven catches while the debutant wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant also managed the same number of catches behind the wicket.
2- Instances of two India fast bowlers taking five-wicket hauls in a Test in England. Hardik Pandya and Bumrah emulated Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Ishant Sharma who achieved the same at Lord's in 2014.
169- The partnership between Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes for the fifth wicket, was the highest in the fourth innings after a team being four-down for less than 100 runs. It is also England's highest ever fifth-wicket stand in the fourth innings and the second-highest for any wicket in the fourth innings at Trent Bridge.
1- Buttler's century was the first by an England top six batsman this year. The last century by an England top six was by Alastair Cook at the MCG in December 2017. There have been two centuries this year before Buttler's but both were at No. 7 - Jonny Bairstow and Chris Woakes. It was also Buttler's maiden Test century.
1- It was also the first time in Test history that all the top five batsmen reached double-figures in all four innings of a Test.
