\"EnglandNagpur:<\/strong> Some resolute batting by Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell in the last session of the day four of the fourth Test has inched them close to a historic series win here at the Jamtha Stadium today.<\/p>\n

India who are 1-2 down in the series and desperately looking for a series levelling were at sea as the Trott-Bell safely put up a 67 run partnership for the fourth wicket to guide the visitors to 161-3 and have taken 165 runs lead.<\/p>\n

Trott was unbeaten on 66 off 153 balls including nine boundaries while Bell was batting on 24 off 67 balls laced with four boundaries.<\/p>\n

England started off well and even though they did not score freely, they put up great resistance. They went to lunch for 17-0.<\/p>\n

But India had a good post lunch session and dismissed both the openers. Ravichandran Ashwin got the first breakthrough after he had the dangerous Alastair Cook caught behind. Compton and Trott then put up a good partnership for the second wicket.<\/p>\n

But Compton\u2019s (34) resistance was cut after Pragyan Ojha trapped him plumb in front of the stumps.<\/p>\n

Pietersen fell soon after the tea and that was the last wicket to fall in the day.<\/p>\n

Earlier India starting the day on 297-8, never showed any intent. They batted for one hour but could add only 29 runs to their overnight score before declaring their innings on 323-9. Pragyan Ojha was the only batsman to get out in the day so far after he played on Monty Panesar\u2019s delivery onto his stumps.<\/p>\n

James Anderson was the wrecker-in-chief for England and returned with figures of 4-81.<\/p>\n

Brief scores<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

England 330 and 161 for 3 (Trott 66*, Bell 24*) lead India 326 for 9 dec (Kohli 103, Dhoni 99, Anderson 4-81) by 165 runs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
