India made a terrific comeback on day 3 of the third Test match as they bundled out England for 319 runs despite them being at a dominating position of 224/2 after 39.4 overs. India was without their key bowler Ravichandran Ashwin on Day 3, however, Siraj went on to take four wickets while Kuldeep and Jadeja picked two wickets each respectively.
India started their innings with a 126-run lead and later went onto post 196/2 at the end of the day with the help of a stunning century from Yashasvi Jaiswal and a fifty from Shubman Gill (65*) respectively.
