Trent Bridge, Nottingham: Ten minutes and 17 balls. That's all it took for India to wrap up a big win over England on Wednesday and keep the test series alive.

In front of a smattering of spectators at Trent Bridge, India quickly took the one wicket it needed on the final day of the third test to clinch a 203-run victory.

England leads the series 2-1 with two tests left, the next match starting in Southampton on August 30.

India captain Virat Kohli dedicated the win - just the country's seventh in tests on English soil - to those affected by the floods in the Indian state of Kerala that have left more than 400 people dead and sent more than 800,000 fleeing for dry land.

"It's a tough time there. People are going through a lot," Kohli said. "This is our bit we can do as the Indian cricket team."
