England sealed the five-match Test series 4-1 with a 118-run win at the Oval. It was a fairytale finish for Alastair Cook, who not only scored a hundred in his final Test but also broke into the top five run-getters of all time in the longest format of the game. England's bowling spearhead James Anderson became the most successful fast bowler in Test cricket when he picked up the final wicket of the game to overtake Glenn McGrath's 563 scalps. There were quite a few records that were broken and rewritten.

Here are the stats highlights from the final day of the Oval Test:

KL Rahul's rare feat

149 by Rahul is the second highest by an Indian batsman in the fourth innings of a Test after 221 by Sunil Gavaskar at the same venue in 1979 when India narrowly missed out chasing down 438 - nine runs away with two wickets in hand

5 Countries where Rahul has scored his Test hundreds - Australia, Sri Lanka, West Indies, India and now England. He became the ninth player to score his first five hundreds, all in different countries. Ajinkya Rahane is the only other India player to do so while Inzamam-ul-Haq has scored his first eight centuries in eight different countries.
