 England fast bowlers dominated the test match against strong Indian batting line up

England crushed India in the third test match at Leeds with a huge margin of an innings and 76 runs. India lost 8 wickets for 63 runs in the morning session on Day 4 to hand England a series leveling win in Leeds on Saturday.

England fast bowlers displayed a brilliant show of swing bowling. Indian batting once again collapsed under pressure. English pacer Ollie Robinson took five wickets to cause the collapse. The strong Indian battling line collapsed like a house of cards or wall of sand.
