Twitter reacts as India fail to win Virat Kohli's first match as a T20I captain
England won the all-important 'toss' and chose to field which proved to be a right decision as they restricted India to 147/7 with a really good bowling display. After some explosive batting from Billings and Roy, captain Eoin Morgan finished it off as England defeated India by 7 wickets.
After being asked to bat first by England, India were not able to score more than 147 thanks to some good bowling from Moeen Ali and co. Mahendra Singh Dhoni top-scored for India with 36*. In return, England chased the target with more than 10 balls to spare, which resulted in Virat Kohli facing a defeat in his very first match as a T20I captain. The Twitterati though reacted and trolled every Indian player's performance. Brief Scores : India 147/7 (MS Dhoni 36*, Suresh Raina 34, Moeen Ali 2/21) lose to England 148/3 (Eoin Morgan 51, Joe Root 46*, Y.Chahal 2/27)
Is it Dhawan in disguise?
Taking off where he left off in the ODIs, KL Rahul.#IndvsEng

The only thing being Dhawan scores less!
Even Shikhar Dhawan lasts longer than KL Rahul on batting crease. #INDvENG

Best batsman in the world!
Kohli in Tests:

Every shot will go on the ground
Kohli in ODI:
50% loft shots 50% ground strokes
Kohli in T20:
90% loft shots
Kohli-Rahul and then now Raina-Dhoni!
After RCB, it is CSK in the middle. #IndvsEng

Kapil Dev 2.0!
Hardik Pandya sets an example that India's all-rounders will be rated on the scale of Kapil Dev & Hardik Pandya.#IndvEng

This alone doesn't change!
Suresh Raina has been brought back because Indian cricketers were confused on who should first hug the bowlers after a wicket #INDvENG

Dhoni's reason why he did not hit any huge sixes today!

When Kohli fails, sadly so does the team!
Just another day when Virat Kohli didn't score a ton #IndvsEng

Good catch!
Eoin Morgan is behaving like Shane Watson, performing well just before an IPL auction #IndvsEng

Failed to play well against spin in India!
I am okay with a poor performance by Indian batsmen but not okay with the fact that Moeen Ali ended up being their best bowler #INDvENG
— Shashi (@AllTimeBakchod) January 26, 2017
Oh, the irony!
The irony when Suresh Raina is bowling a short ball.. #INDvENG

When you are not the only one who fails!
