Joe Root's dashing 149 not out added to India's misery early on Day 3. England, 385 for seven overnight, hammered India's attack for a further 101 runs in 10.3 overs on the third morning before they were bowled out for 486.

Stuart Broad came out for his first innings since having his nose broken when top-edging a a Varun Aaron bouncer into the gap between the peak of his helmet and the grille during England's innings and 54-run victory in the fourth Test at Old Trafford. However, Broad -- who bats left-handed -- was quickly into his stride with a series of flowing offside drives for four, with Sharma the bowler who suffered most.

But Broad's entertaining innings of 37 ended when he was ruled to have gloved a Sharma bouncer to Virat Kohli in the slips.

Kohli atleast managed to get India past the 50-run mark but it wasn't enough to salvage any pride. The batsman then was dismissed in the 24th over, looking to clip the ball on the leg-side but only edging to first slip.

India collapsed to 94 all out, an even worse effort than their meagre first innings 148, after Joe Root's unbeaten 149 had powered England to 486 earlier on Sunday. Victory completed a remarkable turnaround for England, who had been 1-0 down after the first two Tests of this series. It was only the second time a team had won the last three Tests after being behind after two.
