Australia bowed out of the 2017 CT after losing to England in the rain-curtailed game as the hosts were awarded maximum points courtesy of the DLS method. While the Twitterati bashed the Aussies for their horrendous performance, they were equally excited as Bangladesh made it into the semis.

Brief Scores: Australia 277/9 (Travis Head 71, Aaron Finch 68; Mark Wood 4/33, Adil Rashid 4/41) lost to England 240/4 (Ben Stokes 102*, Eoin Morgan 87; Josh Hazlewood 2/50, Mitchell Starc 1/52) by 40 runs (DLS). 

Here are the best tweets from the game:

Can't blame them

Would be a shame if they don't

Not sure about this one though

Huge achievement for the Tigers

Oh! They were "Stoked" about that

Shouldn't they be called Britain then?

That is harsh!!

Rain-gate

The Great Aussie teams would be banging their heads in shock
