Mohali:
With England still 56 runs behind and four wickets down, Kohli & Co. will look to wrap this innings quickly despite the fact that Joe Root is still at the crease. What can this spin-scarred England line-up come with?
Indian spinners took firm hold of the match while using the turn and bounce of the pitch to put England in trouble. They claimed four scalps and made it tougher for the English batsmen to save the match.
Earlier India’s lower order rescued them again as Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Jayant Yadav hit half centuries.
From ball one when Ashwin elegantly flicked a loosener from Woakes through square leg into the fence till a nervey block by the 39-year old nightwatchman off the last ball, the troika dominated proceedings.
