'Ben Stokes ko brain fade ho gaya' - Fans react to England captain getting dismissed by Ravichandran Ashwin's magical delivery

India and England are facing off in the first match of the five-game Test series at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. England batted first, posting a score of 246 in their initial innings. In response, India scored 436, securing a significant lead with notable contributions from Yashavi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, and Ravindra Jadeja, each scoring fifties.

As England commenced their second innings, they battled hard to set a competitive total and make a comeback in the match. The English captain took the crease after the loss of the fourth wicket. Initially, he appeared solid, relying on his defensive skills and biding his time.

However, Ravi Ashwin from the Indian side consistently posed a threat with his brilliant spin bowling, displaying flight, dip, and turn. Despite the captain's efforts, Ashwin eventually dismissed him with an exceptional delivery, a true corker. The ball was nicely tossed up on the middle, hitting the deck and disturbing the surface. It drew Stokes forward, gripped, and turned past the outside edge, crashing into the off-stump. Stokes, who had played a perfect defensive push, was undone by a piece of magic, getting dismissed after scoring six runs from 33 balls.

At present, England have made a strong comeback in the Test match, thanks to a brilliant century by Ollie Pope, who is batting at 127. He is partnered at the crease by Ben Foakes, who is at 31. Together, they have built a partnership of 89 runs. England currently hold a lead of 93 runs and aim to extend it further to exert pressure on the Indian team who will be batting in the second innings where batting is surely going to be difficult.

This dismissal marked the 12th time Ashwin has removed Stokes in Test cricket. As Ravichandran Ashwin showcased his magic, fans worldwide flooded social media with their reactions.
