England skipper Alastair Cook (18), debutant and first innings centurion Keaton Jennings (0), Moeen Ali (0), Joe Root (77), Ben Stokes (18) and Jake Ball (2) were dismissed -- five by Indian spinners. Jonny Bairstow was unbeaten on 50.

England posted 400 in their first innings.
India pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar (1-11) dismissed Jennings in the very first over of England's second innings to start their slide.
Their grief deepened when left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja (2-58) accounted for both Cook and Moeen Ali to leave India in a very strong position. Jayant Yadav (1-39) took the prized scalp of Root while star off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin (2-49) inflicted further damage to push England into the corner.
