On Saturday, the Indian fans were in some serious shock when the Indian skipper Virat Kohli was dismissed by Moeen Ali for a zero in the second Test in Chennai. Kohli was out in the fifth ball that he faced with a delivery from Ali which went through his bat and pad to hit the top of off-stump and leaving India was reeling at 86/3 with Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli going back to the pavilion in successive overs.
What surprised the fans was Kohli’s reaction after the dismissal. The ball spun in so much to go through his bat and pad, and Kohli could barely believe the amount of spin the bowl had managed to extract and almost believed that it was a stumping incident.

After the dismissal, Virat Kohli continued to stand at the crease and look at Rohit Sharma in disbelief after dismissal which forced the umpire to go and check whether it was bowled or stumped.
