So that's it from all of us here. England will have some soul searching to do while India will bank on their good work to stay ahead in the series. Hope you enjoyed our coverage, do join us for the fourth Test match of the series starting on 8th December at 0930 IST. Until then, it's goodbye and take care!
Man of the Match, Ravindra Jadeja says that he is very happy with his performance. Admits that he was giving himself time and knew that if he spends some time, he can convert those into big runs. Mentions that he was looking to play 40-50 balls initially. About the ton being missed he replies that he was not going to risk against off-spinner and that's why targeted the leg-spinner but unfortunately it didn't work out for him. Feels that next time if he is in the 90s, he will play normal cricketing shots. Adds that it was a batting wicket so he had to bowl the right lines and lengths, keep the runs down and was happy to contribute.
Victorious skipper, Virat Kohli acknowledges that none of the pitches have been turners and getting England all out for 280 on the first day was brilliant. Adds that the lower order chipped in at the right time, Parthiv Patel finished the game professionally. Admits that they were motivated by the cheers when England had won the toss, they executed their plans well and came out trumps. Adds that the lower order contributing is a proud achievement, especially in Test cricket. Mentions that Ashwin is the number one all-rounder, Jadeja is in the top 10. Confesses it was great to see Jayant come in and ask for the field he wanted. Credits Shami and Umesh for bowling well and rushing the batsmen. Calls it a pleasing feeling as a captain to see Indian bowlers bounce out batsmen. Opines that Shami's injury (earlier in the year) was a blessing in disguise and is now a lot more fitter and in control of his game. Ends by saying that there are no worries for now, feels bad for Nair who got run out on debut. Hopes to keep things simple and enjoy the break.
England skipper, Alastair Cook says that it was a good toss to win but you don't win many games scoring 283. Remembers last time they toured India, they won keeping the home team under 300. Confesses that they had a sniff when India were 204 for 6 but the lower order saw India through. Calls it frustrating to not make 400 batting first. Adds that Stokes is a brilliant player and his presence allows them to have the right balance. Credits Hameed for showing great fight and determination despite the injury. Applauds India for the win. Hopes that they can make the break count and turn things around. Informs that Hameed has been ruled out of the Test series.
Chasing a small total, India lost Vijay early but Parthiv Patel's brisk fifty kept India in control as they sealed the game and took an unassailable 2-0 lead. They will be delighted with the way they have played so far, stepping up whenever put under any pressure. Their batting has been a bit hot and cold but their all-rounders have risen to the occasion every single time.
Ashwin and Jadeja shared a 97-run stand to take the game beyond England's reach, while Jayant's fifty ensured a handy 134-run lead. The Indian bowlers then led by Ashwin ran through the England batting line-up reducing them to 78 for 4 by stumps on day 3. The visitors were always playing catch up from there and despite fifties by Joe Root and the youngster Haseeb Hameed, England could only set a target of 103 runs. Shami was impressive for India too as he bowled with a lot of venom.
England have been outplayed yet again in this series and they will have their work cut out to bounce back from here. They had their moments in the game but failed to capitalize. They won a vital toss but failed to make it count, scoring just 283 thanks to Bairstow's 89. They then came back with the ball to reduce the hosts to 204/6 but lost the plot again.
