England vs India, First Test, Day 1: 5 Talking Points

Alastair Cook falls early

Cook fell for 13 to an absolute beauty from Ashwin

If England are to do well in the series, one would think that Alastair Cook would have a big role to play with the bat in hand.

On Wednesday, though, it did not prove to be his day as he fell for 13 to an absolute beauty from Ravichandran Ashwin and England will hope that if he does get to bat in the second innings in this game, he can come good and carry that confidence into the remainder of the series.
