India's glorious victory over England in the fourth Test, also won the series 3-1


With the England batsmen once again on their knees against Akshar Patel and Ravichandran Ashwin, India won the fourth and final Test at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad by an innings and 25 runs. 
With this victory, India has won the four-Test series 3-1. Apart from this, India has also entered the final of the World Test Championship. The final of the World Test Championship will be played against India and New Zealand in June at Lord's Cricket Ground in England. England scored 205 in the first innings in reply to India's 365. In the second innings, England were bowled out for 135 and India won by an innings and 25 runs.

England caught in the spin trap of Akshar Patel and Ashwin

Like the first innings, the second innings saw English bowlers helpless against the pair of Akshar and Ashwin. In reply to England's 205 in the first innings, India scored 365 in their first innings. Thus in the second innings England got into the game with debt. England looked set to fight in the second innings but their batsmen were not successful against spin bowling. England's second innings totaled 135 runs. Akshar Patel took four wickets in the first innings and five in the second innings for a total of nine wickets. While Ashwin took three wickets in the first innings and five in the second innings for a total of eight wickets.

England's top order collapsed

England's start in the second innings was extremely bad. His top three batsmen were dismissed cheaply. In which opener Jack Crowley was out for five runs, Johnny Bairstow could not even open the account. He was out on the first ball. Ashwin brought these two batsmen together in the pavilion. The character struck before England came out of the shock and made openers Dominic Sibley and Ben Stokes their victims. Sibley was out for three and Stokes for two. Thus England lost their four wickets for 30 runs.

Jo Root's fight, Daniel Lawrence's half century

Captain Joe Root and Daniel Lawrence gave a little fight for England. Both the batsmen resolutely faced Indian spin bowling but they too did not manage to stay at the crease for long. Jo Root was dismissed for 30 off 72 balls with three fours. While Lawrence managed to hit a half-century. He faced 95 balls with the help of six fours and scored 50 runs. In addition, Oli Pope contributed 15 and Ben Fox 13 runs.

Washington was not out for 96 runs

Earlier, India scored 365 in the first innings with Rishabh Pant's century and Washington Sundar's half-century. Rishabh Pant was dismissed for 101 on the second day of the match on Friday. India advanced to the first innings on the third day on Saturday. In which Sundar and Akshar Patel batted wonderfully. The two recorded a century of partnership. But Akshar was run out when India scored 365 runs. He scored 43 runs. Sundar was playing 96 at the non-strike end when Akshar was out but then Ishant Sharma and Mohammad Siraj could not complete their first Test century with a beautiful four-run out. He faced 174 balls and played an unbeaten 96-run innings with the help of 10 fours and a six. For England, Ben Stokes was the fastest with four wickets, while James Anderson had three and Jack Leach had two.
