R Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav's special gesture stole the show during the fifth Test against England
England are struggling in Dharamsala during the fifth and final Test of the series. Despite a positive start, they tumbled for just 218 runs in their first innings. The Ben Stokes-led side were 137/2 and lost the next eight wickets for just 81 runs. India's spinners were on form, with Kuldeep Yadav taking five wickets, R Ashwin, who is playing in his 100th Test match, taking four wickets, and Ravindra Jadeja picking up a solitary wicket.
After the first innings, a special incident occurred where R Ashwin and Yadav exchanged gestures.
Kuldeep took the ball from the umpire and gave it to Ashwin as a tribute to his 100th Test match. Ashwin returned the gesture by bowling the ball back to the chinaman who had taken a five-wicket haul.
