With yet another dominant performance in home Test series, India look to seal series triumph in the ongoing 5-match series with a game to spare.


Alastair Cook and his men still need 49 runs to make Virat Kohli and Co. bat again but with 6 wickets already gone, it is going to be a tough task handling in-form Indian bowlers on a tricky 5th day wicket.
