The wicket at The Oval aided the pacers early on before becoming a batting beauty. On day five, Indian bowlers still managed to get enough out of it for a famous win.

England captain Joe Root has admitted that his team's humiliation in the fourth Test by India is 'hard to take'.

Joe Root he home captain vowed to make a strong comeback at the Old Trafford in the final Test, starting September 10.

Till the 61st over, England were coasting along at 141/2 but Bumrah took the ball and ran through the middle-order, picking the wickets of Ollie Pope and Jonny Bairstow.

Hussain wrote that any other team would have bowled their main spinner more in similar conditions.

Pujara might have redeemed himself with a knock of 91 which was high on "intent quotient" but the same can't be said about Rahane, whose form is shaky despite a crucial 61 in the second innings at the Lord's.

Rohit Sharma advanced to fifth position in the ICC Test Rankings, going past Virat Kohli to become the top-ranked Indian batsman.

Trusting Ravindra Jadeja's batting ability more than Ashwin, India skipper Virat Kohli had ignored the ace offspinner for the first three Tests.

England's big win at Headingley has come in for a lot of praise from netizens on Twitter.

England crushed India by an innings and 76 runs in the third Test and that gave Root his 27th win as captain in 55 games.

England tied the five-match series 1-1 by taking eight wickets for 63 after India had reached 215-2 Friday while trying to erase a 354-run deficit.

Resuming from 215/2, India lost wickets in quick succession to be bowled out for 278 before lunch.

His latest knock took his year's tally of runs to 1398 and within 390 runs of the aggregate of Mohammed Yousuf, who holds the record for most number of runs in a calendar year with 1788 runs.

Runs came thick and fast for England in most parts of the day as the Indian bowling unit appeared toothless at Headingley, both with the old and new ball.

Root, who scored his third successive hundred of the ongoing series, put his side in the driver's seat after they bundled out India for a partly 78.

India stuck to the same "template" of four fast bowlers and one spinner, sidelining R Ashwin from the set-up and keeping Ravindra Jadeja in the mix.

While India registered a memorable 151-run win at the home of cricket to go 1-0 up in the five-Test series, players of both teams were seen exchanging verbal volleys.
