Twitter reacts as Indian players fail against England in the first ODI
It was the first match of the Kohli era. India fielded first which proved to be a very wrong decision as England piled up runs thanks to some brilliant batting from Roy, Root & Stokes. The Twitterati though reacted to Dhoni's brilliant review, Yadav's bowling & Dhawan's failure at the crease.
Virat Kohli and Kedar Jadhav hit centuries to help India take a 1-0 lead in the three-match one-day series against England. Batting first, England had posted a colossal 350 runs thanks to lower-order blitzkriegs and some poor bowling by the Indian bowlers.
Brief Scores: England 350/7 (Joe Root 78, Jason Roy 73, Ben Stokes 62; Hardik Pandya 2-46) lost to India 356/7 ( Virat Kohli 122, Kedar Jadhav 120, Jake Ball 3/67 ) by 3 wickets.
Local boy Kedar Jadhav had the onus on his shoulder to see off a run-chase with the chase-master and he couldn’t ask for a better start to his innings. After all the manic batting display by the top of the order batsmen, Jadhav displayed composure but at the same time, attacked the English bowlers. Kohli continued his usual magnificent form to bring his 17th century in the run-chase.
With this bowling, that makes sense!
India win the toss and elect to concede runs first. #INDvENG

Dhoni' Review System!
Dear Umpires,

Our DRS -#Dhoni Review System Can Never Be Wrong. When He Asks For Review,Give It OUT To Save Time. #INDvENG #INDvsENG Morgan pic.twitter.com/Ulf40PAIpf
True that!

Poor Umpire has had a very bad day!
Biggest lesson so far: Must refer Nandan's decisions#INDvENG

Things that happened after the toss! :P
Ravi Shastri: Virat Kohli has won the toss, already better than Sourav Ganguly.

Udta Umesh!

It's Time Umesh Yadav Should Reveal Which Team He's Playing For. #INDvsENG #INDvENG
Not something to be proud of!
Captain Changed
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) January 15, 2017
But Indian bowling in death overs remains constant!
Makes complete sense!
Kohli has captained RCB. Seeing his bowlers getting smashed all over the place isn't new to him. #INDvENG

Somethings never change!
Hardik Pandya gets second over of the innings? Looks like Dhoni is still the captain. #INDvENG

As expected!
Bumrah bowled at least three beamers today but wasn't taken out of the attack

One umpire was Indian, other was Dharmasena. Explains#INDvENG
Could not explain it better!
Umesh Yadav bowling is as unpredictable as your GF's mood. #INDvENG

New format, same old story!

Old joke, but still makes sense!
Still a better opener than Shikhar Dhawan 😂 #IndvsEng pic.twitter.com/NcJiskEkxo

His videos in fact are longer than even Dhawan's Test innings!
Shikhar Dhawan's Instagram videos last a tad longer than his innings.

Always a classic!

Best Test player ... KOHLI Best ODI player ... KOHLI. Best T20 player ... KOHLI

I highly doubt that
Tendulkar has posters of Kohli in his bedroom.

That's Kedar for you
Kedar Jadhav will be my Man of the Match. Not often you see someone overshadowing the class of Kohli in a run chase. Well played.

Makes sense
Virat Kohli Was Stopped Thrice From Taking Single On 99*. That SIX Was #Kohli's Way Of Saying "Ab Pakad Ke Dikha BC". ;)#INDvENG #INDvsENG pic.twitter.com/qHry7qYvmk
