Day 4 Summary
After taking two quick wickets in the morning session, India were pushed to the corner by a brisk partnership by Harry Brook and Joe Root. The pair added 195 runs for the 4th wicket, and somewhat ensured England's victory at The Oval. India had a chance to break the partnership in the 35th over of the innings, but a blunder by Mohammed Siraj squandered the opportunity to send Brook back. Both batters went on to score their respective centuries. However, India's yearning for wicket finally ended when Brook departed after scoring 111 runs. England went to Tea at a favourable position at 317/4. Nevertheless, India scripted a comeback by removing Jacob Bethell and Joe Root in quick succession.
