Thank god, Pandya did not play!
Hardik Pandya just had a virtual "haath ko aaya muh na laga" moment #INDvENG :wink:

Side-effect of the new rule!
Dear Indian fielders its not 500rs to drop and Its a Cricket Ball So stop dropping them...

Indian cricketers are dropping catches faster than the rate Americans are applying for Canadian citizenship. #INDvENG #ElectionNight

India don't want to catch anything today it seems? Amul Butter could endorse them. #INDvENG

Udta Umesh for a reason!
The one time Umesh Yadav bowls well, you payback with dropped catches. #INDvENG

What a fumble!
What Umesh Yadav did, reminds me of School kids who get excited after passing an exam. #IndvEng

Joe Root's Autobiography will definitely Include a Chapter named...

Still don't know how it was OUT!
Why Joe Root was given out? because the third umpire said he's smiling... #INDvENG pic.twitter.com/bhJs3GfGxG
