After off-spin bowling all-rounder Washington Sundar used his drift and accuracy well to pick a brilliant 4-22 and end England\u2019s second innings at 192 in 62.1 overs, India embarked on a chase of 193 to go 2-1 up in the five-match series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But in the last 30 minutes of day\u2019s play, England picked up three wickets to tilt the game in their favour ahead of day five. India still have first-innings centurion KL Rahul unbeaten on 33 and they would want him to stay till the end to knock off the remaining 135 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
India didn\u2019t have a great start to the chase as Yashasvi Jaiswal, who looked jittery in the first over off Chris Woakes, fell for a seven-ball duck after skying a short and wide delivery straight up in the air and was caught by Jamie Smith off Jofra Archer\u2019s bowling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rahul, who got off the mark by flicking Archer through fine leg for four, got a life when Chris Woakes couldn\u2019t hold on to a catch off his own bowling. After that, Rahul looked settled with his backfoot punch, square drives and steering past gully with soft hands to take four boundaries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But from the other end, England kept taking wickets - Karun Nair made an error of judgement in the leave and was trapped lbw after being hit right on the pads by a nip-backer from a brilliant Brydon Carse.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Skipper Shubman Gill never looked in control during his short stay at the crease and was struck on the knee roll by another nip-backer from Carse, with the ball tracking showing the ball would smash into the middle stump.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
