India vs England Test 2 Day 5

India wins by 95 runs!

England was all out for 223. Ishant Sharma took 7 wickets to help India win at Lord's after 28 long years. He leads the triumphant team off the field. This India's first oversees win after three years. This test had more twists and turns than any other recent tests.
Joe Root and Moeen Ali's century stand raises England's hopes of chasing 319 to beat India. England was still in the reasonable good condition at 173-5 going into lunch. Moeen Ali was done in by the short ball from Ishant and fell on the last ball before lunch. The stand between Moeen and Root was worth 101 runs. One Ali fell, India kept getting wickets at regular intervals until it was all over.

If England had won today then it would have been the second highest chase in a Lord's Test.
However, a four-wicket burst in the middle session followed by another dismissal shortly after tea put England in control - See more at: http://www.hindustantimes.com/sports-news/cricketnews/live-scores-and-updates-india-up-against-england-in-2nd-test-at-lord-s-amidst-james-anderson-ravindra-jadeja-row/article1-1241451.aspx#sthash.L7AacL0W.dpuf
