Akash Deep's aggressive half-century and Yashasvi Jaiswal's composed century powered India to a commanding position on Day 3 at the Oval. Aided by enterprising lower-order contributions, India set England a target of 374.

India ended a gripping third day that ebbed and flowed leading England by 323 runs in the final test at The Oval on Saturday with the game and series still hanging in the balance.

Yashasvi Jaiswal’s lucky half-century has overturned India’s first-innings deficit into a 52-run lead against England on day two of the fifth test in London.
