Congrats to the Indian team for such a convincing win. England lost the game long ago but still I felt India would need to chase down about 50 runs today but am so happy they won the innings and the series in style. Thanks to Kohli, Yadav, Ashwin and the entire team who played the game so well.
Now this is totally surprising end for England's inning. I was waiting to see some kind of efforts to take this score at least above trail by runs. England didn't try to avoid this defeat by an inning there they could do something. This defeat was obvious even yesterday but not this way was thought and being waited to see in the end.
Ashwin just picked the rest of the wickets and surprisingly India won by an innings which i never expected. Kohli is the man of the India ,if not for his innings along with Jadav's this would have being a draw. Kohli is becoming one of the best captains in the world and he has to prove that in away tests too that he could win matches outside the subcontinent.
Yadav really deserved his century. And he gave well support to captain. Kholi is the best young captain in test cricket. England is suffering a lot in the second innings. They lost 6 wickets just for 182 runs, and they still trail by 49 runs. I think India have a chance to win this match with Innings. Let's see how England will face Indian bowlers today.
It is not about having a chance if the English batsmen cannot build a good lead then it is all game over with just 4 wickets remaining their tail enders have to perform the same way as India tail performed and if so they could build a lead and in the era of T20s they will chase a small total with ease as we have seen in the last test.Comprehensive victory for India. Ashwin runs through the remaining England batsmen in a few overs.
Who would have predicted this result, after England won the toss and scored 400 runs in the first innings!

Kohli is the real man of the match and if yadav could pick a 5 wicket haul then he will be the man of the match for sure.If not for Kohli India will not post this huge total and he is in prime form even after becoming the test captain and he has improved his performance in the test level and is leading from the front.Since this is a spinner friendly wicket it is not surprising that Ashwin took those wickets since almost all of the wickets are taken by the spinner 
Kohli has been performing very well in test matches and hence he was chosen as a captain. Initially I felt Dhoni should not have retired from test but Kohli proved to be better in test matches. Today including Kohli, even Yadav and Vijay performed well and I was surprised to see Yadav making 100+ runs for the team. They all deserve credit for this match.

India is in a strong position to win the match as they need just 4 more wickets to win the match and England is still trailing by 49 runs and with the outstanding performance by India in their first innings changed the momentum of this match.
Yes, i think india will win easily in this test match.They need just 4 wickets and english batsman couldn't play nicely against indias spinner.All credit goes to Virat Kohli.His captaincy is very perfect and what an innings he played.I think his 235 runs is highest by an indian against England.He will be The MOM for sure.
India is close to the win. Under the captaincy of Kohli players had shown their potential. Also Ashwin too gets a chance of getting the Man of the match. Because in the first innings he made a five wicket haul and second innings too got couple of wickets by the 4th day end.
It is true that the Pitch is spinner friendly and on 4th day it got lot of turn, and if the same pitch performance is their on 5th day also then i think India will wrap England batsman in first session itself, Now everything depends on Jose Butler how he is going to face it and how much support will he get from other batsman. Indian Spinners have done a great job and will be surely looking forward to win this test match also.

There is nothing remained what England can do to save the game. India once again has played smart way and this match suddenly took dramatic turn with those 100s what took place earlier today. I was having an idea to see maximum of 100 and some runs lead but it was surprising. Neither draw nor England can be taken even in consideration at this stage. All the opportunities and things have gone once 6 wickets are down with trailed by runs.
Why do you say that ? I mean I think England can still push to draw because still Buttler is yet to come , Woakes and Rashid can bat ( somewhat) . I am not telling this will end as draw but there is a chance for England to prevent loss by building up "one" good partnership of 150+ runs . If England plays till Lunch and give a target of atleast 200 then they still have chance . I know that this looks unrealistic but all I am saying is England still are in the game.

India is full of surprises .I never thought they will score over 500 runs when they lost the seventh wicket for 364 runs. Kohli and Yadav played a wonderful innings to help them post a total of 631 runs. England has now lost 4 wickets for 141 and they still trail by 90 runs,they have to produce an outstanding performance if they plan on drawing the game but looks like India is going to win this match in the final day.
They lost a couple of more wickets before close of play and finished the day at 182/6. With England still trailing India and only 4 wickets to get, India will be favourites to win this match. I suspect they will win by lunch on the fifth day, given the nature of this pitch and England's record against spin.

India have been secured this victory no doubt today India delivered awesome and make record against England highest total runs in test cricket at home ground, now this match has been turned into one sided way and under the fully control of India, tomorrow India will win this match by some overs spares.

Those two centuries made in record partnership played an important role to bring India at front foot so quickly. England like all the time again failed in 2nd inning to show any kind of resistance. Already 3 wickets down and there is a mountain of trail by scores. I think it has been cleared already the fate of this test match without staying to think anymore.
230 runs is a great score on its own and now already 3 wickets have fallen for 49 runs. Happy that Ali got out else he would have easily made 100 this time. India can win this easily without the need to have their second innings if the bowlers help. I wish it doesn't go till the last day and England finish playing today itself.
