India suffered their second major batting collapse in recent times as they were bundled out for 78 on the opening day of the third Test against England at Headingley, Leeds, on Wednesday.
The Indians were shot out for 36 in the pink-ball Test in Brisbane against Australia last year, before they completed a stunning turnaround to seal a series win. In England, it was the other way around as India had entered the third match of the series with a 1-0 lead. But helpful conditions and a rampant James Anderson brought them back down to earth quickly.
Anderson took 3-6 in eight overs, including the wicket of India captain Virat Kohli, who must have regretted his decision to bat first.
Both Sam Curran and Craig Overton took two wickets in two balls after lunch, with Overton finishing with 3-14 in 10.4 overs after being recalled in place of injured quick Mark Wood.
India were 67-5 before losing four wickets for the same score in six balls to be bowled out inside 41 overs. This was India's lowest Test total against England since being dismissed for 42 at Lord's in 1974.
Rohit Sharma (19) and vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane (18) were the only India batsmen to reach double figures.
