Twitter reacts as India lose a Test match at home after 5 years
It was a day to forget for the Indians as Virat Kohli & co under-performed in every department - from missing catches to taking meaningless reviews, to lose their first match in 20 Tests, in forgettable fashion. Steven O'Keefe picked it up from where he left in the 1st innings and picked 6 wickets.
A century by skipper Steve Smith and a 12-wicket match haul by left-arm spinner Steve O'Keefe helped Australia win the first Test of the series by 333 runs only on the third day at Pune. While Australia broke their 13-year winless streak in India, India’s undefeated 19-match streak came to an end.
Brief scores: Australia 260 (Renshaw 68, Starc 61, Umesh Yadav 4/32) & 285 ( Smith 109, Ashwin 4/119) India 105 (Vijay 64, O’ Keefe 6/34) & 107 all out (Pujara 31, O’Keefe 6/34, Lyon 3/53 )
When Indian fans missed the Fab 4! :(
Need Sehwag to give India a flying start.

When opponent captain outscores the entire team twice then something is seriously wrong #IndvAus

True, should've listened to KP! :(
If you can't play spin don't even bother going there, said KP. Indian players should have listened to him. #IndvAus

Looks like he never left! :)
Rahane is throwing away his wicket these days so that we don't miss Rohit Sharma #IndvAus

Seriously!
So Much For India To Learn From Australia. Batting, Fielding, Bowling And Especially "How To Take Reviews". #IndvAus #INDvsAUS

We Indians are very good hosts. Team Australia complained about mosquitoes.
— Amey Kulkarni (@Kulkarnium) February 24, 2017
So Team India immediately got All Out.#IndvAus
Bhajji's prediction gone wrong!

If Australia play well, India will win 3-0 said @harbhajan_singh .. no wonder he's a mentor at MTV Roadies and not in the team
