India defeated England by 5 wickets within the fourth Test to seal their seventeenth straight collection win at residence right here on Monday.
Resuming day 4 at 40 for no loss, India survived some anxious moments earlier than chasing down the 192-run goal within the afternoon session.
India have now taken an unassailable 3-1 lead within the five-match collection with the ultimate sport to be performed in Dharamsala from March 7.
The unbeaten 72-run stand between Shubman Gill (52 not out off 124 balls) and Dhruv Jurel (39 not out off 77) helped India recover from the road following a middle-order collapse.
In the morning session, Rohit Sharma (55 off 81) scored a vital fifty and shared an 84-run stand together with his opening associate Yashasvi Jaiswal (37).
Brief scores:
England: 353 and 145
India: 307 and 192/5 in 61 overs (Rohit Sharma 55, Shubman Gill 52 not out, Dhruv Jurel 39 not out, Yashasvi Jaiswal 37; Shoaib Bashir 3/79).
