England level the series with 1-1

England have won the third Test match against India in Ageas Bowl Southampton by 266 runs and have levelled the series 1-1. Allrounder Moeen Ali took six wickets while Ajinkya Rahane was the only batsmen who stood against the England bowlers. This England's first won after 10 winless Tests spanning 353 days.  

Starting the day 5 with overnight score of 112/4, India was bowled for 178 runs in just the first session. Rohit Sharma was removed in the second over of the day by James Anderson while the rest of the batsmen failed to reach even double figures. Captain MS Dhoni's poor forms continues in the overseas condition.

It is a mere shock, the Indian batsmen have struggled against the English off spinner and more surprisingly, top spinner Ravinder Jadeja was clearly unable to take wickets in the very same ground.

Score: India 178 Allout, Rahane 52, Moeen Ali 6/67
