Twitter reacts to Pujara’s slow knock and Rahul’s century as India reign supreme
India ended the second day with a 162-run lead over West Indies at Jamaica, but it was Cheteshwar Pujara's slow knock that caught the eye. Twitterati praised KL Rahul's stunning innings of 158, while Pujara faced their ire for his 46 off 159 deliveries
Aesop was there
Future generation will read stories about a race between Cheteshwar Pujara and a tortoise #WIvIND

If Akash Chopra tells you that you are slow, you really are!
Bit worried about Pujara. Thought that 100 in SL would set him free. But still looks out of form every time he bats these days.

Over a period of time I realised that my biggest strength was holding me back too. Patience isn't always a virtue. #WIvIND

The jokes never stopped
Pujara is playing 7-day Test match.

Someone told 'players become impatient, that's by test matches r finishing before 5th day'. Seems it hurts Pujara's sentiments.

Although that should stay the doubters a bit!
Those questioning Pujara's place in the side, he still has the highest average in this batting line up #WIvInd

Are you sure?
If your top order grinds the opposition bowlers long enough, lower order/bowlers will always score runs. Good old fashioned tactics. #WIvInd
