Like in the first innings, skipper Shubman Gill was the star of the show for India with the bat. He smashed 161 off 162 balls, breaking a few more records along the way. The right-handed batter hit 13 fours and eight sixes in his dazzling innings. KL Rahul (55), Rishabh Pant (65) and Ravindra Jadeja (69*) all chipped in with handy knocks as India completely batted England out of the contest before declaring.

With the ball, Mohammed Siraj struck early to have Zak Crawley caught at backward point for a duck. Akash Deep then struck two massive blows to dent England's hopes of a draw. He knocked over Ben Duckett (25) with one that nipped off the seam and then cleaned up Joe Root (6) with a beauty.
