There have been only 4 instances of a team winning a test match despite being forced to follow on and 2 of them are thanks to them.

Laxman by a lot

Laxman. Because scoring nearly a triple ton in those circumstances is unreal.

Vvs. Without his innings, Australia would've probably won 20+ in a row.

dont let subs hear you say that Surely even subz wouldn’t argue that bowling lineup at home for its home conditions is one of the best ever assembled?

Laxman but I'd completely get someone who watched Botham's innings opting for it. Both surreal, near-magical knocks.

Overall match performance is still Laxman. He scored a superb 59 in the first innings and was sawn off given out caught off his arm. Combined, it was basically one long innings of 340 runs.
Only Gooch's 154 and Lara's 153 better that knock.
Although if there is any other innings which can qualitatively match that, I'm very interested to know!

not even bothams best century that series. the old trafford knock is the real goat knock. he was in complete control, smashing the bowling to all parts.
