England v India player ratings: Joe Root 6, Moeen Ali 5; Rohit Sharma 8, Virat Kohli 7

India seal 157-run win in fourth Test at The Oval to lead series 2-1

ENGLAND RATINGS: Rory Burns – 6. (5, 50) Set a platform for England in the second innings. The rest had been a struggle, with dropped catches, and a low score first time round. Getty

Haseeb Hameed – 6. (0, 63) Fought a plucky rearguard for two sessions of the fourth innings, but had another duck in the first innings and was involved in the Malan run out. Getty

Dawid Malan – 5. (31, 5) Run out during a mix up with Hameed on the last day when it was set up for him to make his name as a Test player. Getty

Joe Root – 6. (21, 36) A rare blank game for England’s captain. Even he couldn’t stem the tide on the final afternoon. Getty

Ollie Pope – 6. (81, 2) Made a bright return to the side in the first innings, but was powerless to repel Bumrah second time around. Getty

Jonny Bairstow – 5. (37, 0) Again fell short of the sort of a notable knock that would give his Test comeback substance. Getty

Moeen Ali – 5. (35, 0, [Did not bowl], 2-118) No significant contribution with the bat, and untrusted with the ball. Six catches in the match redeemed him somewhat. Getty

Chris Woakes – 8 (50, 18; 4-55, 3-83) Extraordinary return to Test cricket given how little of any sort of cricket he had played of late. Getty

Craig Overton – 5. (1-49, 1-58) Under-bowled when England’s attack were flagging in the second innings, suggesting a lack of confidence from his captain. Getty

Ollie Robinson – 7. (3-38, 2-105) Maybe it was just the docile nature of the pitch, but it looked as though his workload was finally catching up with him by the end of India’s second innings. Getty

James Anderson – 5. (1-41, 1-79) Looked even more world-weary than usual by the end. Is it possible he could have to sit out his home Test at Old Trafford? Getty

INDIA RATINGS: Rohit Sharma – 8. (11, 127) Another hefty contribution in a series full of them, with his first overseas ton. Getty

KL Rahul – 6. (17, 46) Fined 15 per cent of his match fee for dissent at his second-innings dismissal. Should not make too much difference to his bank balance. Getty

Cheteshwar Pujara – 7. (4, 61) A failure in the first innings, followed by a valiant contribution in the second – for the third Test in a row. Getty

Virat Kohli – 7. (50, 44) Two good starts, yet again no century. Had to make do without a coach to lean on at the vital phase of the game, but he thrived. AFP

Ravindra Jadeja – 7. (10, 17; 2-36, 2-50) Odd elevation in the batting order, but he did not let his side down with either bat or ball. Getty

Ajinkya Rahane – 4. (17, 0) A viable alternative to Kohli as captain a few months back. Now he will be lucky to keep his place. AP

Rishabh Pant – 7. (9, 50) A strike rate of 27 in the first innings and 47 shows he does have more than one way of playing. Getty

Shardul Thakur – 9. (57, 60; 1-54) A triumph. Two momentum-shifting half-centuries from No 8, and vital wickets of Pope in the first innings and Root in the second. Getty

Umesh Yadav – 8. (3-76, 3-60) Much like Woakes for England, he had a remarkable impact on his return, given his meagre game time in any form of cricket recently. Getty

Jasprit Bumrah – 8. (2-67, 2-27) The fact he took just four wickets in the match feels like a joke: his spell on the last afternoon broke open the game. AFP

Mohammed Siraj – 5. (1-42, 0-44) Ever willing, but lacking some of the zip of the early phase of the series. Could well get a break at Old Trafford. AFP

India completed a 157-run win over England in the fourth Test after the home side's batting effort collapsed on the final day at The Oval.

After starting the day on 77 without loss, chasing an unlikely 368 to win, England slipped from 141-2 to 210 all out to hand India a 2-1 lead in the five-match series.

Openers Rory Burns (50) and Haseeb Hameed (63) both reached their half centuries but only captain Joe Root (36) provided any resistance in the rest of the batting line-up.

Dawid Malan - ran out in disastrous fashion by Hameed for five - Ollie Pope, Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali all fell without hitting double figures, the latter pair for ducks.

For India, the bowling honours were shared around with Umesh Yadav (3-60), Jasprit Bumrah (2-27), Ravindra Jadeja (2-50) and Shardul Thakur (2-22) all chipping in with vital contributions with the ball.

All eyes now turn to Old Trafford for the final Test that begins in Manchester on Friday.
