India vs England, third Test, Day 5, Nottingham: As It Happened

Nottingham: A brilliant India took just 17 balls to clinch the third Test against England at Nottingham by 203 runs to make an impressive comeback in the five-match series. Needing only a wicket on the final morning, India completed the formalities in only 2.5 overs as England were all out for 317, well short of the mammoth victory target of 521 runs.

The final wicket was taken by Ravichandran Ashwin, who dismissed James Anderson (11), caught by Ajinkya Rahane. India now trail England 1-2 but more importantly got some breathing space after a heart-breaking defeat in Edgbaston, followed by the debacle at the Lord's. This victory has helped the Indian side keep its hope alive in the ongoing five-match series against England.

On day four of the Test match, Jasprit Bumrah took five wickets in his 29-over spell crushing the backbone of the English batting line-up. Ishant Sharma also chipped in with two wickets.
