England have picked up 4 wickets by conceding just 29 runs in the morning to all-out India in 329 runs. The visitors are all-out after scoring 134 runs. Ravi Ashwin has picked up his 29th five-for in Test cricket. India's batting is coming up. Axar Patel got his maiden Test wicket by removing Joe Root. He and Ishant got two scalps each. 23rd five wicket haul for R Ashwin in 45 home Tests - goes past James Anderson's 22 in 89 Tests. Only Muralitharan (45), Herath (26) and Kumble (25) has taken more five-fers at home. 

Ashwin also became the first bowler to dismiss 200 left-handers in Test cricket. The visitors could add just 28 runs post Tea and have been routed for a paltry 134. Foakes showed a lot of spunk in his comeback game for England but ran out of partners just like Pant for India. Looking at the big picture, India are way ahead in this Test with a lead of 195 and they'd look to swell it up furthermore. The England spinners will get assistance off the surface as well. So, it is not going to be easy for the Indians as well. A couple of early strikes and England will look to push the Indians on the back foot a bit.
