Ravindra Jadeja to Johann Layne
OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Ravindra Jadeja returns and picks up his fourth wicket! Jadeja gives the ball a bit of air, on a nagging length, turning away. Layne swings to launch it down the ground but the ball is not quite full enough. It spins away to catch the toe end of the bat and it gets skied towards long off. Mohammed Siraj runs in off the ropes and takes the catch close to his body at waist height.

Ravindra Jadeja to Jayden Seales
Loud appeal for LBW from Jadeja but the umpire shakes his head. Short and spins back in, outside off, Jayden Seales gets across but goes deep in his crease and looks to use his wrist to flick it but misses. Gets rapped high on the back thigh. Height could be the issue.

Kuldeep Yadav to Jayden Seales
OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! DONE AND DUSTED! India win the first Test match by an innings and 140 runs to take a lead of 1-0 in the two-match series. Kuldeep dishes a full ball, lands it in the rough, around off. Jayden Seales remains leg side of the ball and tries to take on the bowler as he was doing in the last couple of overs. He tries to smoke it downtown, but the ball is a bit full and ends up playing it back off the toe end of the bat. Kuldeep gets a bit surprised and brings both his hands in front to take it, but fails to grab, and the ball pops out after hitting his chest. He shows his composure and manages to pouch it on the second attempt. This is a big win for India to kick-start their home season, and they have been clinical in every department, showing their dominance.
