DHARAMSALA -
Ashwin rocked England's top- and middle-order after the tourists began their innings 259 runs behind and lost five wickets for 103 runs by lunch. Joe Root resisted with his 84 and was the last man to go. He was dismissed by Yadav as India celebrated and the players shook hands. Earlier, Anderson got Yadav caught behind for 30 to become the first paceman and third bowler overall to the 700 mark, after spinners Muttiah Muralitharan of Sri Lanka and late Australian great Shane Warne .
Rookie batsman Sarfaraz Khan and debutant Devdutt Padikkal also made useful contributions in India's sole innings in response to England's 218.
