India started the day with bat in hand, leading by 322 runs with Shubman Gill and nightwatchman Kuldeep Yadav in the middle. Once Gill was run out for 91, opener Yashasvi Jaiswal resumed his innings on 104*, after he had retired hurt on Saturday evening. In the company of Mumbai teammate Sarfaraz Khan, the pair smashed England all over the park, enabling India to declare at 430/4 and set the visitors 557 to win.

The Indian bowlers then took over, skittling England for just 122 to secure a 434-run victory.

India's largest Test win before this was their 372-run victory over New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in 2021. In all, they have won eight matches by more than 300 runs.
