India 451 for 7 (Kohli 147*, Jayant 30*) lead England 400 by 51 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsAn old cricket cliche is that batsmen regard poor deliveries as their bread and butter. Virat Kohli, however, seems to prefer it the other way around. He likes a challenge. He wants every bit of his considerable skill tested. It is almost as if he feels shortchanged when things are easy. At Wankhede stadium, Kohli rose above scoreboard pressure on a turning track to make his 15th Test century in front of a packed crowd. In doing so, he became the first Indian captain in 35 years to make 500 runs or more in a series and took his team into the lead.Mumbai has a history of being a very difficult place to bat in the third and fourth innings so even the slimmest of advantages can prove decisive. That was incentive number one. Incentive number two was the opportunity to make tough runs, Kohlis favourite kind. There was quick turn and steep bounce. Englands spinners exploited them to pick up four wickets for 45 runs in the middle session. India, at that point, were 307 for 6 and 93 runs behind. Four good balls would have had them on the mat.But Kohli had his plans. Simple ones. He moved back and across to the offbreaks of Moeen Ali, knowing the bowler doesnt use his wrong un often. So he was always in a good position even when a few deliveries kicked up off a length. He would lean over the legbreaks of Adil Rashid and from that position his powerful wrists were able to do what they wanted. Those skills were bolstered by a new-found restraint.He was careful outside his off stump, even his leaves were characterised by a giant front-foot stride and the bat stabbing at the air above him, and was content despite scoring only 11 runs off 47 balls in the first hour after lunch. Kohli recognised that England had hit their rhythm and the sensible thing to do was to wait it out. He was having the time of his life doing it all, of course, winking at his partner after hitting boundaries and sticking his tongue out at the pitch when it misbehaved.It didnt hurt that there were nearly 20,000 people at the ground chanting his name. Kohli draws from them. He did at Eden Gardens, where India became the No. 1 team in the world. He did in Visakhapatnam, where he produced a couple of masterclasses on a slow and low surface. At Wankhede, when he got his 100th run, he screamed in delight, leapt up to punch the air and spread his arms in triumph. The noise was deafening. He batted through the entire day and remained unbeaten on 147. England had to deal with another Indian batsman showing his class on Saturday. M Vijay made 136 sublime runs. They were important runs too, with his partner Cheteshwar Pujara falling off the second ball of the day.Alastair Cook took a punt. He had a man with 467 wickets at the ready but chose the one playing his first Test since his debut in July to bowl the opening over. Jake Ball repaid that trust emphatically when he bowled Pujara neck and crop. The batsman had shouldered arms, having misread the line of a delivery that pitched on fifth stump and seamed in.At this point, India had a choice to make. It was very early in the day. They were 254 runs behind on a turning pitch. Their usual No. 5 Ajinkya Rahane, who averages 47, was injured. So their middle order comprised of Karun Nair, playing his second Test, and Parthiv Patel, recalled this series from an eight-year cryogenic freeze. But this team is probably allergic to taking steps back.Kohli guided Ball to the third man boundary twice in the fourth over after the breakthrough and then thumped a fist onto the face of his bat when Vijay hoisted Moeen Ali a straight six. India went from 150 to 200 in only 66 balls - after the wicket had fallen.Vijay reached his hundred off the 231st ball he faced, benefiting from an outside edge as Moeen tried bowling around the stumps and got one to hold its line. He celebrated pointing to his left shoulder, while looking at someone in the dressing room. Soon after, he took a perfectly good delivery from James Anderson and lofted it back over his head for four.It would sicken England that they had a chance to dismiss both of Indias centurions for a lot less. Rashid fumbled a tough return catch offered by Kohli on 68 and had watched the wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow miss a stumping off Vijay on 45 the previous evening.It was even more of a shame because Englands spinners had put in an impressive performance. They worked the rookie Nair over beautifully. Rashid beat the outside edge three times in a row before Moeen, bowling around the wicket, had him lbw with a good length delivery that straightened sharply enough to overrule the on-field umpires not-out decision when England went for DRS. They had their revenge over Parthiv, who questioned their quality last evening only to fall to part-timer Joe Roots first over of the day. R Ashwin was then caught brilliantly by Keaton Jennings at short leg, the fielder staying in line with a full-blooded flick and being rewarded for it when the ball just stuck in his midriff.At that point, England had a sniff at securing a lead but handy cameos from Ravindra Jadeja and Jayant Yadav meant India pulled ahead. Their seventh wicket added 57 runs in 82 balls and the eighth an unbroken 87 off 145. However, England had their chances. Jayant was dropped on 8, by Root at second slip, when England had belatedly taken the second new ball in the 130th over then survived an edge down the leg side on 28 which the umpire did not spot only for England not to have any reviews left.

Miller reached right to deflect Mikhail Grabovskis attempt with just over 2 minutes remaining in regulation, and then made two more saves in the shootout Sunday to give the Sabres a 2-1 win over the Washington Capitals. AINESVILLE, Fla. - Two second-half goals gave the University of Florida soccer team a 2-0 win over Tennessee in Southeastern Conference home action Sunday at the James G. Pressly Stadium.After a scoreless opening half, Savannah Jordan put the Gators on the scoreboard in the 69th minute. The play started when Samantha Chung stepped up to a Tennessee clearance and one-touched it ahead to Jordan just above the box. Jordan and her defender fought for possession as Jordan moved toward goal and her seven-yard right-footed shot scored just inside the near post.The Gators got an insurance goal in the 89th minute when freshman Sammie Betters scored her first collegiate goal. From just above the endline, sophomore Sarah Troccoli sent the ball to Betters who was wide of the top of the 18-yard box. Betters took a touch and then hit a 23-yard shot which curled in at the far post upper corner.Worth Noting: The goal was Jordans eighth of the season. She leads UF in goals and points (23). Betters is the fifth Gator (and second freshman) to score her first collegiate goal this season, joining teammates Melanie Monteagudo, Gabby Seiler, Chung and Kit Loferski. Tennessee entered Sundays match with a three-match win streak - all by shutouts. Jordans goal ended the Vols shutout streak at 354.54 minutes. Both teams entered the match 4-0 in 2016 Sunday matches.

When you come off a loss like we had on Thursday, its great to get back out on the field. All we were looking for was a response from the teeam, and I think we got that.ddddddddddddIt was a pretty dominating performance in terms of us being able to keep it and our shots on goal. At the same time, I think Tennessee did a great job keeping us off the board in the first half. I think our team wanted to make a statement, especially because we thought that result on Thursday wasnt who were thought we were. So I think they came out with a little chip on their shoulder to show who we were. - Florida Head CoachBecky Burleigh On Sammie Betters scoring her first collegiate goal: Its funny because at that point in the match we were just trying to keep possession, but obviously she saw something she thought she could exploit. She did and it went right in.Florida Head Coach Becky BurleighOn tonights match... Its great to get a shutout, weve been working towards that all season. Im really proud of how our team collectively played defense together. I also think we had a really good response after Thursday night. We recollected ourselves, and we know were better than a 3-0 loss. So we came out today and played with that passion. We played for each other, and I think it benefited us in the best way.Were going to have another tough one on the road again next week. I think this is a good start to get us back on the right foot and to push forward to the rest of the SEC. - senior forward Savannah Jordan On her first collegiate goal: I looked up and saw the back post was open, so I figured Why not go for it?. It went pretty well, I guess. It was exciting for sure and its great to contribute for the team in any way. - freshman midfielder Sammie Betters ' ' '
