Twitter reacts to Tim Paine sledging Rohit Sharma from behind the stumps
The sledging responsibilities have more often than not been carried out by wicketkeepers in international cricket. Today, it was Tim Paine who was delivering sledges to Rohit Sharma and it was hilarious! The Twitterati found a way to troll Tim Paine and took revenge for what happened to Rohit.
Before we get into the fun stuff let's check out the stunning things that Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara have achieved!
This is why Virat Kohli is one of the best batsmen you will ever see!
Virat Kohli is now the first visiting player with three consecutive 50+ scores in the MCG's Boxing Day Test matches.

He scored 169 (1st inns) and 54 (2nd inns) during the 2014 Test match. #AUSvIND #BoxingDayTest
Finally, after a long time!
India has batted 122.5 overs before losing their 3rd wicket - The 2nd longest they batted for the 1st three wickets in an away Test inns since 1999.

India batted 126.1 overs before losing their 3rd wicket in the 1st inns of the 2004 Multan Test against Pakistan. #AUSvIND
That is insane! Virat Kohli just went past Rahul Dravid on this list!
Most runs in a calendar year in overseas Tests:
— Deepu Narayanan (@deeputalks) December 27, 2018
1212 Graeme Smith (2008)
1154 Viv Richards (1976)
1138 VIRAT KOHLI (2018) - most for India
1137 Rahul Dravid (2002)
1065 Mohinder Amarnath (1983)
1061 Alastair Cook (2010)#AUSvIND
Pujara has come a long way! Take a bow!
Days like these when all the sacrifice and coaching of his father Arvind and early practices at the the “Railways Parkland” must bring great great satisfaction to Cheteshwar Pujara and his family. 17th Test century. Solid as a rock👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.

The first time Pujara has got two hundreds in an overseas series. This has been the year he has been reborn as a batsman

You know you have peaked when even Mitchell Johnson has only good things to say about you!
Another great 💯 by a great player & by one of the nicest guys in the game 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Well done buddy #pujara #runmachine #genuineniceguy https://t.co/AMQ4If3h0R

The amount of patience you need to achieve must incredible!

3808 Kohli
3792 Elgar
3614 Karunaratne

Now the fun part begins!
Tim Paine's banter!
Paine to Rohit Sharma -
— Neha (@NJagnani) December 27, 2018
"Is it true Rohit? Did Finchie get you out. To be honest, the hardest two overs I played in domestic cricket last season were from him."
This just getting better and better 😂😂

Tim Paine from behind the stumps

' If Rohit hits a six here, I am changing to Mumbai '
After Australia dropped a couple of catches, this savage tweet came in!
Australia's catching not nearly as good as Paine's banter.
— Saurabh Malhotra (@MalhotraSaurabh) December 27, 2018
Food for thought!
Wonder why Paine gets all chirpy once Kohli is dismissed. Can’t hear a word from the bloke’s mouth when Kohli is at the crease.

The actual reason behind Tim Paine's sledges!

Can't wait for this to happen! :P
Would be fun if Paine says "I know your wife is in it but you can't seriously like Zero" to Virat when he comes to bat next

Virat Kohli in the second innings!

So that's how Rohit Sharma scored a 50!
I think Rohit Sharma's general aura of talent is blinding the Australian fielders.
— Ramesh Srivats (@rameshsrivats) December 27, 2018
Every fan's dilemma!
I don't know what's more good about Pujara's hundred? His shots or he delaying Rohit Sharma's batting? #AUSvIND
— Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) December 27, 2018
Fun Fact!
Rohit Sharma (27 Tests) and Rishabh Pant (8 Tests) have almost identical Test batting averages of 39.9.
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) December 27, 2018
Rohit has 3 100s, no 90s; Rishabh 1 100,2 90s.
Both dropped once in this innings, dollies. #AusvInd
