India wins the last Test of the five-match series by an innings and 64 runs, handing the visitors their biggest defeat in the ‘Bazball’ era.
India defeated England by an innings and 64 runs in the series’ sixth match on Saturday at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) stadium in Dharmsala. India won the series 4-1.
Ravichandran Ashwin (5 for 77) has joined spin icons Muttiah Muralidaran, Shane Warne, and Anil Kumble as the only bowlers to take five wickets in their 100th Test.
England were bowled out for 195 during the end of the afternoon session, with Ashwin going through their reckless batting lineup to finish with nine wickets.
Joe Root was his team’s lone ranger, and he batted brilliantly, scoring 84 off 128 balls. He was the last batter to be out.
