Ollie Pope, standing in as England's captain, managed to overturn his poor track record with review decisions by succeeding for the first time during the fifth Test against India at Old Trafford. This success marks his 14th attempt to get a review right.
England's bowling attack, led by Gus Atkinson and Chris Woakes, dismantled India's batting lineup early on. Atkinson made a memorable entrance, returning to Test cricket since May, as he dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal with a delivery that befuddled the batsman, leaving India in a precarious position.
Pope's correct review decision earned humorous applause from regular captain Ben Stokes and praise from commentator Michael Atherton, who highlighted Pope's perseverance and growth. Chris Woakes added to India's troubles by dismissing KL Rahul, whose error handed England yet another advantage on the field.
