Rohit Sharma c Moeen Ali b Jack Leach 161 231 18 2 69.7

72.6

Jack Leach to Rohit Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Finally, England has done enough to break this stand. Rohit wanted to send this one all the way over the ropes and into the stands but his timing on this stroke was not the best. He is very unhappy with himself as he walks back now but there is applause all around the ground, as they show their appreciation to Sharma, who has been absolutely phenomenal with his 161. Flighted and on middle, Sharma looks to employ the sweep again, which he has played well so far. This time though, he ends up generating a top edge and the ball flies towards Moeen Ali at deep mid-wicket, who does not make a mess of this one. A delightful knock comes to an end and the 162-run stand is broken.

Shubman Gill lbw b Olly Stone 0 3 0 0 0

1.3

Olly Stone to Shubman Gill, OUT! LBW! That is as dead as a stone by Stone! Massive misjudgement by Gill. This is on a length, outside off and Shubman shoulders arms. To his dismay, the ball comes back in a long way and hits him on the pads. SG knows he is in danger, the moment he is hit. He looks at the umpire, who takes little time in raising his finger. Gill slowly walks towards Rohit, hoping that there would be something that will make his partner tell him to take the review. Nothing. Impact does not matter, as he was not offering a shot. He was hit below the knee roll, so height would have been umpire's call at the most. In fact, Ball Tracker shows it to be hitting off stump. Wobbly seam doing the trick, with the inner half of the seam hitting the batsman. Too close to the off stump to be left. Perhaps, Shubman left it on length, but given this is India, it is risky.

Cheteshwar Pujara c Ben Stokes b Jack Leach 21 58 2 0 36.21

20.2

Jack Leach to Cheteshwar Pujara, OUT! CAUGHT AT SLIP! Leach has persisted and eventually, been rewarded. Full, just outside off, Pujara does nothing much wrong. Pushes at it with firm hands. The ball hits the deck, generates a massive puff of dust and takes the outside edge. Sharp chance for Ben Stokes at first slip who takes it nicely to his left. The stand of 85 has been broken. Looked like Pujara wanted to use his feet but then, indecision cost him.

Virat Kohli (C) b Moeen Ali 0 5 0 0 0

21.2

Moeen Ali to Virat Kohli, OUT! BOWLED! Moeen has dismissed Kohli! One wicket brings another and the Chepauk is in a hush. Beautiful bowling and Ashwin will already be licking his lips. Full, outside off, the Indian skipper leans to drive. But the ball drifts in beautifully, spins in a mile, goes past the inside edge and hits the stumps! Kohli hears the death rattle but does not want to go. He asks Rohit whether he is bowled because he feels that the bails have been dislodged off the keeper's gloves. The umpire now takes it upstairs but the first replay shows that the ball has hit the stumps. A duck for Super V!

Ajinkya Rahane b Moeen Ali 67 149 9 0 44.97

75.2

Moeen Ali to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! CASTLED! Rahane goes now. Root was annoyed that he was not given out in the last over and now, Rahane is walking back. England doing well to come back into the game now as they have removed those two set batters who were troubling them. Loopy and around the off pole, Rahane gets on his knees again and looks to sweep this one away but he does not connect the bat with ball on this occasion. The ball sneaks in under the bat and spins back in sharply to disturb the timber behind.

Rishabh Pant (W) not out 58 77 7 3 75.32

Ravichandran Ashwin c Ollie Pope b Joe Root 13 19 1 0 68.42

82.3

Joe Root to Ravichandran Ashwin, OUT! CAUGHT! Root gets a wicket now. England doing well to scalp some good wickets right towards the end of the day. This is flighted and around leg and middle, Ashwin is in two minds in whether to defend this one or to flick it to the leg side. In the end, he comes ahead and the ball takes the inside edge, then the pads and goes to Pope at short leg, who takes a good catch.

Axar Patel st Ben Foakes b Moeen Ali 5 14 1 0 35.71

89.2

Moeen Ali to Axar Patel, OUT! STUMPED! Moeen Ali gets his third wicket! Flighted delivery on off, Patel looks to flick but misses it. It goes towards the keeper where Foakes takes the bails off. It is referred upstairs. Replays show that Patel's foot was outside the crease.

89.4

Moeen Ali to Ishant Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Moeen Ali gets his fourth wicket! Full toss on middle, Sharma looks to sweep but gets a top edge. It goes towards mid-wicket where Rory Burns takes a comfortable catch.

95.5

Olly Stone to Mohammed Siraj, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Olly Stone finishes the innings with 3 wickets! Short of a length and outside off, Siraj looks to cut but gets an outside edge. It goes towards the keeper where Foakes takes a comfortable catch.

Rory Burns lbw b Ishant Sharma 0 3 0 0 0

0.3

Ishant Sharma to Rory Burns, OUT! LBW! Ishant Sharma strikes! Good length delivery on off, Burns looks to defend but misses it and gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals for lbw and the umpire raises his finger. Burns reviews it after consulting with his partner. Ultra Edge shows no spike on it. Ball Tracker shows it is umpire's call and Burns has to walk back as the onfield decision was out.

Dom Sibley c Virat Kohli b Ravichandran Ashwin 16 25 3 0 64

7.2

Ravichandran Ashwin to Dom Sibley, OUT! TAKEN! There is a spike! Sibley has to keep walking. Ashwin gets the big wicket. The man from Chennai is delighted. He tosses it up, it lands on middle and bounces extra. Sibley sets up for the sweep. He misses to get hit on the pad. The ball then lobs and goes to Kohli at leg slip who dives forward to take the catch. They appeal for LBW but not out says the umpire. However, Kohli is appealing for a catch. He is almost celebrating and calls for the DRS. Suggests there is some bat there. Time for the replays. Well, well. It has come off the back of the bat and lobbed to Kohli. He dives forward and takes the catch nicely. The onfield call will be changed.

Dan Lawrence c Shubman Gill b Ravichandran Ashwin 9 52 0 0 17.31

17.6

Ravichandran Ashwin to Dan Lawrence, OUT! TAKEN AT SHORT LEG! WOW! Ashwin wins the battle! The local boy roars again. Lovely delivery. He stopped before delivering this ball. Took his time and maybe worked out the plan as to what ball he wants to bowl. Loops this around off and middle, Lawrence comes on the front foot and has a defensive poke with hard hands. The ball spins enough to take the inner half. It goes a little right of Gill at forward short leg. He snaffles the chance and the Indians celebrate! With this, it is LUNCH ON DAY 2.

Joe Root (C) c Ravichandran Ashwin b Axar Patel 6 12 0 0 50

10.3

Axar Patel to Joe Root, OUT! CAUGHT! Massive wicket! The man in sublime form has been dismissed. The sweep shot was always going to be a tough shot and Root went for it. On this track, with extra bounce, it was even riskier. He ends up getting a top edge and it balloons towards Ashwin and short fine leg. He is not going to miss out. Big, big wicket for India and top stuff from Patel. He accounts for Root as his debut Test wicket.

Ben Stokes b Ravichandran Ashwin 18 34 1 0 52.94

23.2

Ravichandran Ashwin to Ben Stokes, OUT! BOWLED! Ashwin gets his third wicket! Googly on off, Stokes looks to defend but misses it and gets bowled. The ball turned away sharply.

Ollie Pope c Rishabh Pant b Mohammed Siraj 22 57 1 0 38.6

38.1

Mohammed Siraj to Ollie Pope, OUT! TAKEN! A blinder from Pant down the leg side. Siraj, the man does the job for the Indians. His first ball on the Indian soil in Tests and he gets the wicket. The good-looking stand is broken. Not a wicket-taking delivery this one but Siraj and the Indians won't care. The first ball from Siraj is a bit short but it is angled down the leg side. Pope looks to work it down the leg side but he nicks it behind. Pant, behind the sticks, dives full length to his left and snaffles the chance. Well, not really. The ball pops out of his left hand in the first attempt but he keeps him calm and gobbles it in the second attempt. Pope has to go.

Ben Foakes (W) not out 42 107 4 0 39.25

Moeen Ali c Ajinkya Rahane b Axar Patel 6 30 1 0 20

48.1

Axar Patel to Moeen Ali, OUT! TAKEN! A blinder from Rahane at first slip. Inspired bowling change from Kohli. Patel gets another one. Dangerous Moeen has been sent packing. Lovely ball from Patel. Floats it around off, it spins away a touch. Moeen stays back and looks to defend. The ball takes the outside edge. It goes behind and hits the thigh of Pant to his left. The ball then balloons to the left side of Rahane. He lunges forward and takes a stunning catch. Number 7 falls now. Still 25 behind from avoiding the follow-on.

Olly Stone c Rohit Sharma b Ravichandran Ashwin 1 4 0 0 25

49.2

Ravichandran Ashwin to Olly Stone, OUT! CAUGHT! Gone this time. An easy catch for Sharma at mid-wicket. Ashwin has his 4th. He floats this around off and middle, Stone goes for the flick. It goes uppishly towards mid-wicket. A simple chance for Rohit there. England crumbling here.

Jack Leach c Rishabh Pant b Ishant Sharma 5 34 1 0 14.71

58.5

Ishant Sharma to Jack Leach, OUT! CAUGHT! Another stunner from Pant. One-handed blinder from Pant. A good length ball, shapes away after pitching. Leach looks to defend with hard hands. He ends up getting a thick outside edge, the ball flies to the left of the keeper. Pant flies to his left again. The ball once again sticks in his left hand. Fine, fine catch and India just 1 away from bundling England away. A probing over from Ishant this one and he finally gets the reward.

Stuart Broad b Ravichandran Ashwin 0 2 0 0 0

59.5

Ravichandran Ashwin to Stuart Broad, OUT! TIMBER! There you go! It's all over in this innings. Fifer for Ashwin! His 29th in Tests. Floated on middle, Broad gets down and looks to sweep. He fails to get under it and ends up getting an inside edge. The ball then hits his pad and goes onto the stumps. England are bowled out for 134.

Rohit Sharma st Ben Foakes b Jack Leach 26 70 2 1 37.14

21.1

Jack Leach to Rohit Sharma, OUT! STUMPED! Very sharp work from Foakes and England have sent both the overnight Indian batters back to the pavilion. Superb delivery from Leach. Rohit walks back now. Leach tosses the ball just outside off, Rohit lunges forward and looks to defend but the ball beats the outside edge. Foakes collects and takes the bails off in a flash. The third umpire has been called for again. And Rohit's foot is on the line, feels the third umpire. Nothing behind the line and OUT flashes on the big screen. The centurion from the first innings has to go.

Shubman Gill lbw b Jack Leach 14 28 0 1 50

11.2

Jack Leach to Shubman Gill, OUT! LBW! Three reds! Gill departs and takes the review along with him. Leach gets the breakthrough. Flighted delivery on off, Gill looks to defend but gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals for lbw and the umpire raises his finger. Gill reviews it at the last second. Ultra Edge detects no spike on it. Ball Tracker shows that it is three reds.

Cheteshwar Pujara run out (Ollie Pope / Ben Foakes) 7 23 1 0 30.43

18.6

Moeen Ali to Cheteshwar Pujara, OUT! RUN OUT! Pujara is short. Oh, dear! What an unfortunate way to get dismissed. You got to feel for Pujara. His bat got stuck in the crease and he failed to return back. Moment of luck for England early in the morning. Moeen loops it up and around off and middle, Pujara comes down the track and flicks. Pope at short leg is alert. He stops the ball quickly and throws it to the keeper who takes the bails off. The third umpire has been called for. Replays roll in. Pujara tries to get back but his bat gets stuck in the crease and then he tries to return but ends up being on the line. And that is enough for the third umpire to send him back to the pavilion. Unfortunate way to get dismissed.

Virat Kohli (C) lbw b Moeen Ali 62 149 7 0 41.61

65.4

Moeen Ali to Virat Kohli, OUT! LBW! Umpire's call on hitting the wickets and Moeen has got his man again. Kohli has to depart. It is the 5th time that Moeen has got the better of Kohli in Tests. This is floated around off, slightly short. It spins in. Kohli looks to work it on the leg side from the back foot but misses to get struck on the pad. A loud appeal follows and the finger goes up. Kohli has a chat with his partner and then signals the 'T'. Replays roll in. Ultra Edge shows no bat. Ball Tracker rolls in. It is umpire's call on hitting the wickets. So, the on-field call will stay. A brilliant, brilliant knock from the Indian skipper on this turning track comes to an end. The 96-run stand is broken and India lead by 397 runs.

Rishabh Pant (W) st Ben Foakes b Jack Leach 8 11 1 0 72.73

25.3

Jack Leach to Rishabh Pant, OUT! STUMPED! Foakes with a stunning work again and Pant falls now. He was always going to play his shot but falls in the process. Leach tosses it up and outside off, Pant dances down the track but fails to reach to the pitch properly. And the ball lands in the rough and spins in to beat his attempt. It goes to the right side of Foakes who collects the ball and whips the bails in a flash. Pant walks back now and the morning keeps getting better.

Ajinkya Rahane c Ollie Pope b Moeen Ali 10 14 2 0 71.43

30.3

Moeen Ali to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! TAKEN! Fine catch at short leg and Rahane walks back now. Moeen gets his first wicket. Half the Indian team back to the pavilion now. Moeen slows this one and lands it outside off. Rahane comes down the track to defend with his bat and pad together. This one doesn't turn much and Rahane ends up getting it off the inner half of the bat. It then hits his pad and lobs uppishly in front of Pope at short leg. The master of short leg catching, Pope, dives forward and takes the catch inches above the turf. The umpire raises his finger and Rahane goes. India lead by 281 at the moment.

Axar Patel lbw b Moeen Ali 7 18 1 0 38.89

36.1

Moeen Ali to Axar Patel, OUT! LBW! No bat involved and umpire's call on hitting wickets. The onfield call stays and India lose their sixth wicket. Lovely from Leach. He slowed this one down and landed it around off. Patel comes on the front foot to defend but a hint of spin into the batsman means he misses to get struck on the pad. A loud appeal and the umpire raises his finger after taking a bit of time. Axar has a word with the skipper and decides to take it upstairs. Time for the replays. Ultra Edge shows no bat. Ball Tracker rolls in and it shows that the ball would clip the middle stump. So, Patel has to go. Review stays for the Indians though as it was the umpire's call.

Ravichandran Ashwin b Olly Stone 106 148 14 1 71.62

85.5

Olly Stone to Ravichandran Ashwin, OUT! DRAGGED ON! End of a fantastic innings and that will also be the end of India's innings. Ashwin's superb knock comes to an end and he walks off to a standing ovation, one which he rightfully deserves. Shortish ball just outside off, Ashwin looks to pull it on the leg side but gets a thick inside edge which sees the ball hit the stumps. INDIA ALL OUT FOR 286! ENGLAND NEED 482 TO WIN!

Kuldeep Yadav lbw b Moeen Ali 3 9 0 0 33.33

67.6

Moeen Ali to Kuldeep Yadav, OUT! LBW! Three reds and Moeen has his 4th. Fuller and around off and middle, Kuldeep comes on the front foot and looks to defend but this one doesn't turn much. He though plays for it and misses to get hit on the pad. An appeal is made and the umpire has no problem raising his finger. It looked out but Kuldeep takes the review. Ultra Edge rolls in and it shows no bat. Time for the Ball Tracker. Here it comes. Pitching in line, impact in line and hitting the wickets. So, Kuldeep has to go. 8 down for India.

Ishant Sharma c Olly Stone b Jack Leach 7 24 1 0 29.17

76.4

Jack Leach to Ishant Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Leach gets his fourth and the bowling change has worked for England. Flighted delivery on off, Ishant looks to go for a big hoick with a slog sweep. He does not connect it as it comes off the upper half of his bat. Stone at square leg, runs to his left and slides to take a very good catch. 9 down and Ashwin is unbeaten on 77. Can Siraj hang in there till Ashwin's century?

Ravichandran Ashwin to Rory Burns, OUT! TAKEN! Ashwin strikes. Burns has been removed nicely. Lovely stuff from the local lad. Tossed up, around off and middle, it lands on the rough and spins away. Burns looks to work it on the leg side but ends up getting an outside edge. Kohli at second slip takes the catch nicely. Burns walks back after showing good intent.

Dom Sibley lbw b Axar Patel 3 25 0 0 12

8.2

Axar Patel to Dom Sibley, OUT! LBW! This is as plumb as it could be. He has a chat with his partner at the other end and opts against the DRS. Axar darts this flat with the arm. It pitches around off and middle and skids in sharply. Sibley goes on the back foot and looks to work it on the leg side but misses to get hit on the pad. A loud, loud appeal and the finger is raised. The Indians celebrate. The debutant gets the breakthrough for the Indians.

Dan Lawrence st Rishabh Pant b Ravichandran Ashwin 26 53 2 1 49.06

25.1

Ravichandran Ashwin to Dan Lawrence, OUT! Stumped! What was that from Lawrence? Someone would have told him to be positive against the spinners and use his footwork but he has overdone that. And take a moment to praise the glovework of Rishabh Pant. What a superb take by him! Ashwin begins with a flighted ball around leg, probably sensing the charge from the batsman. Lawrence jumps down the track, almost instinctively. But he fails to keep it out and the ball goes through his legs. Pant stays aware of it and does well to grab the ball first and then he stretches out to break the stumps. Dan is out of his crease and will have to depart. 6 wickets more needed for India!

Jack Leach c Rohit Sharma b Axar Patel 0 1 0 0 0

16.6

Axar Patel to Jack Leach, OUT! CAUGHT! The nightwatchman walks out for a duck and Axar Patel gets his second wicket of the innings. The ploy to send the nightwatchman has not worked at all and England have lost their 3rd wicket. Sharp bounce and turn for Axar Patel there. He bowls it close to the rough outside off. There is another explosion on the pitch. Leach looks to defend but the ball turns in sharply and catches the inside edge of the bat. It flies to leg slip. Rohit Sharma there takes a sharp catch.

Joe Root (C) c Ajinkya Rahane b Axar Patel 33 92 3 0 35.87

49.2

Axar Patel to Joe Root, OUT! Root falls and the end is nigh for England! Superb delivery. It lands full around off, a puff of dust comes off as it lands and spins away with extra bounce. Root once again is on the front foot to defend but it catches the gloves and goes straight into the hands of Rahane at first slip. All over! Unplayable delivery. You need the luck to survive!

Ben Stokes c Virat Kohli b Ravichandran Ashwin 8 51 0 0 15.69

37.6

Ravichandran Ashwin to Ben Stokes, OUT! Ashwin gets his bunny! 10th time he has dismissed Stokes in Test cricket. A tossed up ball landing full on middle, Stokes leans forward to defend but it takes the inside edge, brushes his pads and lobs behind where Kohli does well to catch it by stretching to his right from second slip. The fight is over from Stokes, he looks down in disappointment and then drags his body to the pavilion. A big blow to England. Five down, five more to go as far as India are concerned.

Ollie Pope c Ishant Sharma b Axar Patel 12 20 1 0 60

43.5

Axar Patel to Ollie Pope, OUT! Pope holes out! Axar has three and England are six down. The inexperience of Ollie on display here. Floated and full ball around off, Pope opts for the sweep shot ignoring the fact that there is a square leg in place for that shot in the deep. He needed to keep his shot down even if he wants to play it but fails to do so. The ball goes aerially and it's a simple catch for Ishant Sharma. Pope is known to be a good batsman against spinners and this surely will disappoint everyone in the dressing room. More application was needed from him in this battle for survival.

Ben Foakes (W) c Axar Patel b Kuldeep Yadav 2 9 0 0 22.22

48.3

Kuldeep Yadav to Ben Foakes, OUT! KULDEEP HAS A WICKET! He jumps in joy as Axar catches the ball. Another English batsman known to play spin well departs while attempting a sweep shot. Poor, very poor! A tossed up ball landing full around off, Foakes stretches forward and is way too early into his sweep shot. As a result, it takes the toe end of his bat and balloons straight to Axar Patel standing in front of square leg. He is not going to drop those. England slip further and with that, IT'S LUNCH ON DAY 4!

Moeen Ali st Rishabh Pant b Kuldeep Yadav 43 18 3 5 238.89

54.2

Kuldeep Yadav to Moeen Ali, OUT! Moeen is stumped! End of his entertaining knock and INDIA WIN BY 317 RUNS! Kuldeep shows the heart to flight yet another delivery and lands it wide outside off, Moeen is down the track for another big shot but this time the ball spins past his bat and Rishabh Pant does the rest.

Olly Stone lbw b Axar Patel 0 5 0 0 0

51.1

Axar Patel to Olly Stone, OUT! A flatter delivery, landing full around off and straightening from there, Stone kneels down to play the sweep shot but it goes under his bat and strikes him on the back thigh. They appeal and the finger goes up. Olly takes the DRS. Ultra Edge finds no edge. The Ball Tracker shows that the impact is with umpire's call and it's hitting the stumps. Stone walks back. A fifer on Test debut for Axar and he is ecstatic!
