India 304-4 (68 ovs) & 587 vs Eng 407 | SCORECARD

Tea on Day 4 - and India tighten their grip. It's been a slightly unconventional session, but with a towering lead of 484 and four sessions left, the match is firmly in India's control.

Shubman Gill's regal century - his second of the match - has been the backbone of the innings, offering poise and authority. At the other end, Rishabh Pant provided the spark, smashing a typically audacious 65 to keep England under pressure.

With time on their side and a worn pitch in play, India look poised to dictate the final act.
