India vs. England, 3rd Test: Spinners put India in control, with bat and ball

Alastair Cook looked plumb in front as India appealed for an leg-before in England’s second innings. R Ashwin was getting the ball to do things. The ball turned away from the left-handed Cook and umpire raised his finger. Ashwin had struck. India celebrated but Cook consulted Joe Root and went for review. The relays showed that the ball had pitched just outside leg-stump line. Not out. How could Cook survive two reviews in two over’s? Clearly he was living on the edge. He had survived another review in the previous over, bowled by Ravindra Jadeja.
But it was a matter of time before Ashwin dismissed the England captain. The off-spinner got one to go through Cook’s defence and knocked over his middle stump. He later deceived promoted batsman Moeen Ali in the flight to have him caught at mid-on.
