IND vs ENG 4th Test: India crush England to book spot in WTC final

India booked their berth in the World Test Championship final by beating England by an innings and 25 runs on the third day of the fourth and final Test at Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday.

After resuming the third day on 294/7, India were guided to a total of 365 by the eighth-wicket partnership between Washington Sundar (96*) and Axar Patel. Trailing by 160 runs, England sent out their openers just before the lunch break. But spinners Ravichandran Ashwin (5/47) and Axar Patel (5/48) dominated the rest of the two sessions. The visitors were bowled out for 135 with Daniel Lawrence top-scoring with a fifty.

India WIN By INNINGS and 25 RUNS, SEAL SERIES 3-1!

Ashwin does it, he picks up his 30th Test five-wicket-haul after bowling Lawrence out for 50. England crumble down on 135 and India win by an innings and 25 runs. Kohli's men seal the series 3-1 and book their tickets to the World Test Championship final.
