England beat India by 60 runs to win the fourth Test at Southampton on Sunday. Victory, achieved with more than a day to spare, saw England take an unassailable 3-1 lead in this five-match series. India, set 245 to win, were dismissed for 184 after tea on the fourth day. Recalled off-spinner Moeen Ali took four wickets for 71 runs for a match haul of nine for 134.

Virat Kohli, the India captain, passed 500 runs for the series while making 58 and put on 101 for the fourth wicket with vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane 51. But their exits either side of tea led to a collapse, with the match ending when Ravichandran Ashwin was lbw to Sam Curran. The fifth Test at The Oval in south London starts on Friday.
