WATCH: How Ashwin and Kohli dismissed Joe Root with a 'perfect plan'

New Delhi: India’s star all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin, who took 3 for 14 after Tea to spin Indian back in to the fourth Test match, said there was a perfect plan to trap England’s No. 3 Joe Root.  After winning the toss, England were 196/2 at Tea. But Ashwin believed the wicket of Joe Root meant it was a good session for India. "The afternoon session wasn't all that bad because we actually gave 90 odd (79) runs and took only one wicket obviously, but that was a big wicket, we got Root. We thought a couple of wickets together (in the last session) if we could patch it up and try and finish the day with four or five down, be nice, it would be nice to finish on six down actually," he added. Ashwin said that the dismissal of Joe Root was a well-planned one, something on which he had worked a lot. "I must say, I reworked that dismissal in my head, because he has got out a lot of times in the slips. In the last three Test matches, we have played, he nicked one in Vizag, I thought he nicked one and it was reviewed over and turned over. But he has got a tendency to nick spinners to the slip cordon. I saw him nick Dane Peidt in South Africa. He has done it quite a few times to Nathon Lyon (Australia) as well." "So I was just imagining. On the first day, this is one of the wickets out of the 4 Tests matches, where actually edges do carry to slips, so I was just mentally working it over and it happened," the satisfaction was palpable.
