ENG v IND, 4th Test: India Loses 3 As England Bounces Back In 1st Session, Score 329/6

England bounced back into the test match in the first session of day 4 as they took three wickets while India extended their lead to 230 runs. 

Resuming the day at 270/3, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja continued from where they left last evening - defending. The two saw off the first 40 minutes however the introduction of Chris Woakes changed the game. 

Woakes removed Jadeja LBW for 17 and almost got Ajinkya Rahane in the same over - a review saved him. But Rahane couldn't capitalise on that and another Woakes delivery struck him in front as he walked back to the pavilion for a duck. 

Virat Kohli at the other end was looking in sublime touch. He drove well, defended well, and had some luck as well throughout his innings of 44 before Moeen Ali's got the better of the Indian captain eventually. Ali drew Kohli forwarded but a straight delivery found the edge of to the only slip. 

Rishabh Pant has so far controlled his natural game and has scored 16 from 41. He is partnering with Shardul Thakur who once again looking in the same touch with the bat as he was in the first innings. The two have so far added 17 from 42 balls.
