England vs India, 5th Test Day 3 Highlights: India were in a commanding position heading into Day 4 as Cheteshwar Pujara's fifty helped them take a 257-run lead over England on Day 3 of the ongoing fifth Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham. Pujara (50) scored his fifty in the final over of the day, while Rishabh Pant also remained unbeaten on 30. Virat Kohli had also made a strong start before a short-pitched delivery from Ben Stokes gave him his marching orders. Earlier, Mohammed Siraj took four wickets, while skipper Jasprit Bumrah took three as India bowled out England on 284, taking a solid 132-run lead in the first innings of the ongoing fifth Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham. Jonny Bairstow lost his wicket to Mohammed Shami on 106 runs on Sunday before Stuart Broad got dismissed by Siraj. Bairstow had earlier helped England bounce back from a precarious state of 83/5 in the ongoing fifth and final Test match against India at Edgbaston, Birmingham. He along with Stokes had stitched a 66-run partnership for the sixth wicket before adding 92 runs for the seventh wicket with Sam Billings. A day prior, Jasprit Bumrah had returned figures of 3/35 to keep England under the pump while Mohammad Shami and Mohammed Siraj had claimed a wicket each to further pile misery on the hosts. (SCORECARD)

- 18:38 (IST)Ind vs Eng: India Lose ReviewJasprit Bumrah hit the front pad of Bairstow and appealed for an LBW. When he failed to convince the umpire, the India skipper decided to go upstairs. Later, ball tracking found it to be missing the leg stump and that saw India lose a review.ENG 239/6 (52.5)
- 18:12 (IST)Ind vs Eng: Century For BairstowA four and Jonny Bairstow races to his 11th Test hundred in 119 balls. He has looked solid today and England would want him to continue holding one end tight.
