The spinner managed to trap Rehan for an LBW, bringing an end to his stand with Crawley. The nightwatchman, who came into bat near close of play on Day 3, managed to score just 23 runs before Axar struck! The wicket also came at the heels of skipper Rohit Sharma missing a catch narrowly at the stumps.

Crawley continues to bat on, keeping up the pressure on the Indian bowlers. He is joined by 1st Test hero Ollie Pope as England look to finish the game by the end of the day’s play.
