[WATCH] ENG vs IND 5th Test: Dhruv Jurel caught behind, length delivery from Mohammed Siraj clinched Jamie Smith

Mohammed Siraj and India got their man early. In-form batsman Jamie Smith went back to the pavilion after a fine edge early on Day 5, the last day to decide the fate of the game and the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy.

After dismissing Harry Brook and Joe Root, the boys in blue sneaked back into the contest by taking wicket after wicket at short intervals. Jamie Smith and Jamie Overton, both well established with batting skills, started Day 5 for England to wrap up the match. After Day 4, the home team needed only 35 runs to win, with still 4 wickets in hand.

The early moment of Day 5 ignited with a banger from Siraj. He took Jamie Smith. The keeper-batter of the England team lost his wicket for only 2 off 20; India got some extra oxygen to breathe under an intense situation at The Oval.

In the 3rd delivery of the 78th over, Siraj, like before, put focus on the length and delivered the ball, maintaining a line around the off stump. The right-handed batsman tried to guide the ball towards the cover region but got only a feather edge. Dhruv Jurel behind the stumps did the gathering safely. Indian cricketers were confident about the dismissal, but the umpire, Kumar Dharmasena, was in doubt. Kumar Dharmasena walks over to the leg umpire' Ahsan Raza. He wants to check if the catch was clean.

One replay was enough to confirm the edge and the catch. When Smith was gone, England was 347 for 7. The match got more competitive and thrilling than before.
