SOUTHAMPTON, England (Reuters) - Moeen Ali spun England right back into contention on a fluctuating second day of the fourth test with five wickets as India slumped to 273 all out in their first innings on Friday.

At 142-2 India were well-placed to build a healthy first innings lead having bowled England out for 246 but Sam Curran took the vital wicket of Virat Kohli before off spinner Ali ripped through the middle order with a stunning spell.
