England’s Barmy Army take a jibe at Virat Kohli after Chennai duck

England, who received the primary check by 277 runs, virtually took the higher hand within the first session on Day one after India received the toss and opted to bat. Moeen Ali was the architect for the guests when he eliminated skipper Virat Kohli with an excellent supply. Ali struck an enormous blow when he bought one to dip and switch in sharply as Kohli going for a canopy drive was bowled by means of the gate.
An ecstatic Ali together with different England fielders instantly ran off to rejoice their prized wicket whereas a surprised Kohli stood his floor in bewilderment. In truth, Kohli even went for a chat with non-striker Rohit Sharma to presumably enquire whether or not the bails have been disturbed by wicketkeeper Ben Foakes.
However, replays confirmed in any other case as Kohli made the lengthy stroll again to the pavilion, dismissed on a duck for the twenty sixth time in his worldwide profession.
Incidentally, Ali is the first-ever spinner to dismiss Kohli for a duck in worldwide cricket. The final spinner to dismiss Kohli at a single-digit rating in Tests is Tharindu Kaushal at Galle in 2015.
It was Moeen’s first Test wicket since August 2019, and the fourth time he had dismissed Kohli in 13 Tests.

However, Ali’s success prompted England’s fan group Barmy military to take a dig on the Indian captain’s response —

Meanwhile, it was Rohit Sharma who performed some pleasant strokes to notch up his seventh Test hundred as he steered India to 189/3 at tea.
Rohit, who has moved to 132 (178 balls, 16 fours, 2 sixes), and vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane (36, 80 balls, 5 fours) helped the workforce get better from the early dismissals of captain Virat Kohli (0) and Cheteshwar Pujara (21).
