Sundar Shines, Gambhir Celebrates as India Face Uphill Chase Against England
14 Jul
Summary
- Washington Sundar takes 4 wickets for 22 runs in England's second innings
- Gambhir's fiery reaction to Joe Root's dismissal goes viral
- India struggle in chase, end day 4 at 58/4, trailing by 135 runs
The third Test match between India and England has seen some dramatic moments on the fourth day. Indian spinner Washington Sundar was the star of the day, taking four wickets for just 22 runs as England were bowled out for 192 in their second innings.
The crucial wicket of England's Joe Root sparked a fiery reaction from India's head coach Gautam Gambhir, whose celebration in the dressing room has now gone viral on social media. Root and Ben Stokes had stitched together a crucial partnership, but Sundar's delivery turned just enough to crash into Root's leg stump, ending his innings.
However, India's chase of the 193-run target did not get off to the best start. The hosts lost four quick wickets, including openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Karun Nair, as well as captain Shubman Gill. At stumps on day 4, India were 58/4, still trailing by 135 runs and facing an uphill task on the final day.
