England skipper Ben Stokes on Monday said he had full belief in his batters` ability to chase a near-impossible 399 against India on a difficult track in the lost IND vs ENG 2nd Test because `scoreboard pressure` usually got the best out of them.

England lost by 106 runs but did not abandon their ultra-aggressive `Bazball` approach during the chase. However, barring Zak Crawley (73), the visiting batters could not convert their starts into big scores.
