England beats India to tie series, Ali takes 6

MOEEN Ali claimed six wickets as England beat India by 266 runs to win the third test at the Rose Bowl in Southampton yesterday and level the series at 1-1 with two to play.

Spinner Ali took six for 67, including a spell of four for 17 in 22 balls, as India, resuming on its overnight 112-4, was bowled out for 178 in its second innings in pursuit of what would have been a new fourth innings record winning total of 445. Ajinkya Rahane, who scored 54 in India’s first innings, remained unbeaten on 52.

It was England’s first test win since it beat Australia at Durham in August of last year, ending a run of 10 matches without victory. The fourth test starts at Old Trafford on August 7.
