It was in the fitness of things that Jasprit Bumrah completed the demolition job he had started in the first innings. England’s brave assault on a fourth-innings target of 399 ended 106 runs short at the ACA-VDCA Stadium on the fourth afternoon, India drawing level in style, but it wasn’t all smooth sailing.
India would not have been under any illusions when England began Day Four on 67 for one. Any lingering doubts about England’s approach had been dispelled in the 14 overs to stumps on the third evening. Extending their attacking designs structured around proper if unorthodox cricketing strokes, England stayed in the contest for long stretches on Monday, but eventually ran out of steam as India found an answer to every question.
