India defeated England by eight wickets in the third Test to take a 2-0 lead in the five-Test series at Mohali on Tuesday.

Resuming their innings on 78-4, still 56 runs behind in the second innings, England needed a miracle if they were to take anything from the game.

Joe Root and Haseeb Hameed notched up half-centuries, before the visitors were bowled out for 236, setting India a fourth innings target of 103 that they routinely chased down.

There was a lot praise for Virat Kohli’s men from former Indian cricketers, including the likes of VVS Laxman, Aakash Chopra and Mohammad Kaif.

Meanwhile, ex-England captain Michael Vaughan looked at the positives for England in the form of 19-year-old Hameed.

As expected, there was also a lot of talk surrounding the performances of Mohammed Shami, Hameed and Parthiv Patel on Twitter.
