Champion England quick James Anderson has bowled one of the greatest overs of all time to lead the Poms to a 227-run, fifth-day victory over India in Chennai.<\/p>\n
The most successful fast bowler in Test history castled India opener Shubman Gill and star middle-order batsman Ajinkya Rahane with two unplayable deliveries in four balls, in an exceptional display of reverse swing during the final morning session of the match.<\/p>\n
