Moeen Ali to Mohammed Shami
OUT! SOUND OF TIMBER! Shami is done for this Test match. Big turn for the off spinner. Moeen gives it a good toss and lands it on a fuller length outside off, it probably lands on one of the footmarks and breaks back in sharply. Shami tries to push it through the line by getting forward but it spins back in to beat his bat and goes on to shatter the stumps. England inching closer. Can they pick the remaining wickets before Lunch?

Ollie Robinson to Ishant Sharma
OUT! EDGED AND CAUGHT! Wicket number 5 for Robinson and he is on fire! The Indian batters just keep following each other back to the shed. None of them are showing any sort of resistance. Ollie serves this on a length, closer to the off pole, makes Ishant have a poke at this, but the ball holds its line after landing. Kisses the outside edge and Jos Buttler has an easy catch. We are nearing the curtains on this game. Just 2 more wickets away, are the Three Lions!

Moeen Ali to Ravindra Jadeja
SIX! Jadeja is not going to hang around. He will try to get some quick runs and apply some pressure on the English bowlers. This is bowled fuller again, around middle and spinning away, Ravindra Jadeja jumps out. Thwacks this one over the bowler for a biggie.

Craig Overton to Ravindra Jadeja
FOUR! That's played nicely. Jadeja is getting some boundaries here, but it does not look like it will make any substantial difference. Overpitched this time, on off, Jadeja punches this with hard hands through the mid off region.

Craig Overton to Ravindra Jadeja
FOUR! Another good shot. Placed it nicely this time. Slightly short, outside off, angling away, he waits for the ball to come to him and just pushes this one past the gully fielder. Jadeja wants to save India at least from the embarrassment of an innings defeat. Can he do it?

Craig Overton to Ravindra Jadeja
FOUR! Third in a row! Craig Overton comes 'round the wicket and hurls a shortish ball, offering width outside off, Jadeja again waits for the ball to arrive and then just dabs it past the diving gully fielder. India are behind by 78, whereas, England need 2 more wickets.

Craig Overton to Ravindra Jadeja
OUT! EDGED AND CAUGHT! Overton joins the party now! Brilliant work from him and another Indian batter takes a sad, long walk back to the shed. Jadeja walks back and there goes India's last shot at avoiding an innings defeat. On a length by Overton, landing closer to off and then leaving the batter. Ravindra Jadeja looks to defend but that proves to be his undoing, as the outside edge is caught. Another catch that Jos Buttler is not going to drop. England are one more wicket away from levelling the series.

Craig Overton to Mohammed Siraj
OUT! EDGED AND CAUGHT! It is all done! There is the game. It has not taken long for England in the morning session on Day 4 to wrap the game up. Brilliant work from England and Overton finishes proceedings. Craig Overton bowls this one on a length, closer to the off pole, it lands and shapes away. Mohammed Siraj looks to block but the outside edge is induced. Jonny Bairstow, at second slip, dives to his right and pouches this. ENGLAND WIN BY AN INNINGS AND 76 RUNS AND LEVEL THE SERIES 1-1!
