Twitter reacts as Indian bowlers wreck havoc on Day 1
The Twitterati had a field day as Ishant Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin destroyed the Sri Lanka team, limiting them to just 205 runs. After a dry spell in the Eden Gardens, where Ashwin and Jadeja failed to pick any wicket, the duo returned with vengeance scalping seven in Nagpur.
Brief Scores : Sri Lanka 205/10 (Dinesh Chandimal 57, Dimuth Karunaratne 51; R Ashwin 4/67, R Jadeja 3/56) lead India 11/1 (KL Rahul 7, Murali Vijay 2*; Gamage 1/4) by 194 runs.
Here are the funny tweets from the game:

Maybe this is the reason why Rohit Sharma was picked in the team today! :P
Rohit back in the side just to make other batsmen look good? #IndvSL

Should be renamed to Dilruwan Review System!
Dilruwan Perera reviews an on-field LBW decision and survives on 2#INDvSL

Finally, he runs out of luck!
And he reviews in vain this time. No inside edge, three reds, and Jadeja has the last laugh
