Leeds, Aug 27 India were all out for 278 on the fourth day of the third Test against England at Headingley, Leeds, losing the 3rd Test by an innings and 76 runs . They began the day on 215/2, with Cheteshwar Pujara on 91* and captain Virat Kohli on 45*. The pair was helped by Rohit Sharma’s fifty on Friday but with a lead of 139, England levelled the series 1-1.
After two days of outright domination, England finally encountered some resistance from India on the third day. The hosts were bowled out for 432, taking a 354-run first-innings lead. Joe Root’s team had skittled the tourists for 78 inside two sessions on the first day, but scoreboard pressure and gloomy overhead conditions were not enough to undermine India this time around.
