1st Test, Day 4, Highlights, India (IND) vs England (ENG) From Trent Bridge, Nottingham
- 21:43 (IST)ROOT OUT!Bumrah to Root, OUT caught behind. Big wicket for India and what a brilliant delivery it was from Jasprit Bumrah even the set batsman failed to pick the line. Third wicket for Bumrah and fourth catch by Rishabh Pant in this innings. The new ball has done the job for India. Root departs after a match defining innings.
- 19:56 (IST)100 Runs!Single and here it is 100 runs lead for England. Indian bowlers have dominated the English batsmen in this game but they failed to stop the scoreboard going and if England score another 150 runs then definitely it will be a difficult task for India in the fourth innings while chasing the target. India need few more wicket and specially Joe Root's wicket.
