England bowlers pushed India on the backfoot on day four of the second Test at Lord's as the hosts claimed three quick wickets against the visitors.
India lost captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Stuart Binny in quick succession followed by Murali Vijay's wicket on 95.
However, Ravindra Jadeja counter-attacked and kept the lead on the rise and currently India lead by 243 runs at lunch.
