NOTTINGHAM England (Reuters) - A first test of unlikely batting records fizzled out into a draw as India declared on 391 for nine late on the fifth day against England at Trent Bridge on Sunday.

India recovered from losing three wickets early in the final day which briefly gave the hosts a glimpse of victory but test debutant Stuart Binny and tail-ender Bhuvneshwar Kumar both scored half centuries to snuff out the danger.
