Indian women's badminton team have already booked their last eight spot with two successive victories and will be facing China on Tuesday in their last group A clash.
The day was special for English skipper Ben Stokes, who claimed the wicket of Rohit with his first delivery of the series, having not bowled competitively since the second Test of last year’s Ashes. A sharply seaming ball that hit Rohit’s off stump as he resumed his innings after the lunch break brought some relief to the English camp as it ended a sedate 171-run stand for the second wicket between Sharma and Gill.
After winning the toss, England got off to a positive start with Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett enduring a tough first hour in swinging conditions before lifting the visitors to 64 for 0 with their seventh 45-plus stand in nine partnerships on this tour. However, that scoreline was 175 for 6 by the time Ben Stokes became Kuldeep’s fifth and final scalp, and ultimately 218 all out with Ashwin running through the tail.
The visitors have made two changes: speed bowler Ollie Robinson has replaced Mark Wood, and spinner Sohaib Bashir has taken the place of Rehan Ahmed.
Ishant is currently in England for India's Test tour. So far, in the ongoing five-match Test series against England, Sharma has been in a sensational form.
Pujara said his innings in the Nottingham Test helped him prepare for the fourth Test.
England has taken a 2-1 lead and the fourth match is being played at the Rose Bowl, Southampton.
Joe Root-led England cricket team were bowled out for 271 runs in the third innings of the fourth Test match at the Rose Bowl, Southampton.
Despite Pujara's 132, India finished with 273 runs in the first innings, after losing five wickets for 34 runs.
