India lead up to 281 after Jaiswal hundred at the Oval
Jaiswal made 118 after he was dropped three times.
Ravindra Jadeja was on 26 with Dhruv Jurel on 25 and India was 304-6 in its second innings.
India added 115 runs in the middle session for the loss of captain Shubman Gill, Karun Nair and Jaiswal.
Gill was out to the first delivery after lunch, plumb lbw to an in-swinger by Gus Atkinson. With 11 in his last bat of the series, Gill finished with 754 runs, passing Graham Gooch's 752 in 1990 for the most by any batter in an India-England series.
In the same over, Nair's index finger was crunched by Josh Tongue and it was taped up. But Nair, in obvious discomfort, never settled. He was dropped on 12 and eventually out for 17, his glove nicking behind Atkinson's extra bounce.
By then, Jaiswal already had his hundred, his second of the series, fourth against England, and sixth of his career.
He turned his 127th ball faced to point and was celebrating before he ran the single; leaping, running, and shaping his fingers into a heart.
Jaiswal played frantically for his 51 on Friday night and was dropped on 20 and 40. He was composed on Saturday, happy in the morning to let nightwatchman Akash Deep cut loose for a career-best 66 with 12 boundaries in their third-wicket stand of 107.
But as the day clouded over, England's seam attack, depleted of the injured Chris Woakes, discovered some nasty movement and Atkinson and Tongue came alive in the afternoon.
After drinks, Jaiswal was dropped on 110 by Ben Duckett at leg slip. It was the sixth drop in the innings, England's most in a home test since 2006 when it spilled six against Pakistan, also at the Oval.
Jaiswal added only eight more runs when he fell tamely a half-hour before tea for 118. He ramped Tongue straight to Jamie Overton at backward point.
Jaiswal used up 164 balls and hit 14 boundaries and, on Friday evening, two sixes. But he also used his luck to put India in a position to give England a tough chase.
Jadeja was on 24 when he was smashed on the foot by a Tongue yorker and given out, which was overturned on review.
He and Jurel continued the four-plus-runs-an-over pace that Deep and Jaiswal launched in the morning.
Atkinson had 3-99 and Tongue 2-100 at tea.

Kyle Schwarber's 2-run shot, grand slam powers Phillies to 13-3 rout of Orioles
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kyle Schwarber homered twice, including a grand slam in Philadelphia's eight-run sixth inning, and the Phillies pounded the Baltimore Orioles 13-3 win on Monday night. Schwarber finished with six RBIs, running his major league-leading total to 94 on the season. Schwarber's first homer of the game was a two-run shot deep into the second deck that tied it at 3 in the third. He heard 'MVP! MVP!' chants when he came to the plate in the sixth. Schwarber, the All-Star Game MVP, launched his NL-best 40th of the season into the right-center seats off Yaramil Hiraldo for a grand slam that sent the crowd of 41,099 into a frenzy. Harrison Bader homered for the first time since he was acquired by the Phillies at the trade deadline, a tiebreaking three-run shot earlier in the sixth. The Phillies added closer Jhoan Duran and Bader in trades on consecutive days with Minnesota. With his 102.5 mph fastball and electric entrance, Duran was an instant fan favorite in Philly. Bader made his case with a homer off Corbin Martin. Bryce Harper hit a solo shot for the contending Phillies, his 17th. Edmundo Sosa and Weston Wilson hit back-to-back homers in the eighth for a 13-3 lead. Phillies starter Jesús Luzardo (10-5) allowed a two-run homer to Tyler O'Neill and a solo shot to Jordan Westburg over six innings. Key stat Schwarber has reached 40 homers in three of his four seasons with the Phillies. He hit 38 last season. Up next The Orioles send RHP Dean Kremer (8-7, 4.27 ERA) to the mound on Tuesday night against Phillies RHP Taijuan Walker (3-5, 3.82 ERA). ___

Carlos Correa inadvertently pushed teammate Griffin Jax to request trade during Twins wild deadline
No man left behind. The Twins traded nearly half of their MLB roster at last week's trade deadline, but if it weren't for the Carlos Correa deal, pitcher Griffin Jax likely would have stayed put. 4 Griffin Jax was a last-minute addition to the Twins' fire sale at the trade deadline as he requested a deal right after Carlos Correa was moved. AP Once Correa was moved, Jax knew it was time to go and immediately put in a trade request of his own, which wound up landing him with the Rays. According to The Athletic, Jax had a confrontation in the dugout with Twins manager Rocco Baldelli late in Wednesday's loss to the Boston Red Sox, which Correa tried to mediate. 4 Carlos Correa reunited with the Astros at the trade deadline, waiving his no-trade clause to do so. Matt Blewett-Imagn Images But this wasn't going to force Jax to request a trade, it was afterward when Correa informed Jax of a conversation he had with team president Derek Falvey: Correa would only waive his no-trade clause if the team was pursuing a full-blown roster sale at the deadline. So, when Correa was traded back to the Astros, a team he spent seven years of his career with, Jax knew that the roster teardown Correa mentioned was underway and he wasn't fond of the idea of being left behind with the aftermath. The reliever requested a trade and was dealt to the Rays for former top pitching prospect Taj Bradley. 4 Jax in his new Rays threads during Sunday's game against the Dodgers. AP Jax was thriving as a swing-and-miss arm out of Minnesota's bullpen before the deadline, as he had racked up 72 strikeouts across 46 innings, good for a 14.1 K/9, which is second in MLB among relievers with at least 40 innings pitched. In the 24 hours leading up to Thursday's trade deadline, Minnesota dealt 10 players off its 26-man active MLB roster. It was perhaps the most shocking deadline for any team in baseball, as that extent of selling at the deadline toed the line of excessive. 4 Correa is back with the team he won the World Series with in 2017. AP The Twins also traded elite closer Jhoan Duran, which was originally what made many surprised that they also decided to move Jax — as it turns out, though, it was Jax's request in the first place.
