India vs England Highlights, 1st Test, Day 5: India crumble as England soar to 1-0 series lead

FOUR! Gill begins the show with a boundary in the first over of the final day. Leach bowls it wide outside off and the Indian opener pulls it through mid-wicket.

Cheteshwar Pujara and Shubman Gill have come out to bat. Jack Leach kicks off the proceedings on Day 5. HERE WE GO!

Nothing has changed much. It going to be a hot day with 27 degrees Celsius temperature and 51% humidity.

"While Team India is facing a uphill task chasing a big target, I believe Indian batsmen have both skill and the will to make a match of it. Exciting 5th day play in the offing," tweeted former Indian batsman VVS Laxman.

"If we get a good start tomorrow, we can chase this down, because we have a batting line-up that is fearless and can chase this down, and it's important to look at 381 runs and not 9 wickets. On the first two days, the pitch was not assisting us and the spinners, it felt like we played on a road, but it started turning later on in Day 4 and it was a lot more responsive then," said Ishant Sharma after the end of fourth day's play.

No shortage of enthusiasm from the head coach as always. But given what this team has achieved in the last two Test matches, do not count out the possibility of India trying to chase it down.

He's done it in the previous two Tests and even in the first innings against England. There is a method to Rishabh Pant's madness. He doesn't blindly go after shots. He looks at which bowler to go after and when he sees the opportunities, connects them bloody well. India have found a very fine Test batsman in Pant and a lot will depend on how he bats, provided he gets the opportunity to.

A weary, deteriorating and turning Day 5 pitch awaits at the Chepauk on Tuesday. Jack Leach and Dom Bess would be licking their lips. However, they will be up against an Indian team that has played extraordinarily well in the final innings of the last two Tests. Who can forget the epic draw in Sydney and the pulsating chase at the Gabba? Not England for sure.

Hello and a very good morning to our viewers. If you're already on your way to work then make sure you reach by 930 AM today, for that is the time another day of enthralling Test cricket will begin between two wonderful teams - India and England. If anyone believed this England team would be walkovers for India, dispel those thoughts right away. England have bossed four days of Test cricket in the Chennai Test and have set India a pretty tough target to chase on a Day 5 turning surface. Oh it's going to be a juicy day alright. The equation is simple: England need nine wickets, India 381 runs more. The reward is an early 1-0 lead in the four-match series? Who is your money on?
