After Shikhar Dhawan's glorious 90-run knock helped India post a total of 174, Sri Lanka's Kusal Perera took away the game with his explosive powerplay hitting. Twitterati weren't impressed with India's below average display against a weak Lankan side and they made it known in innovative ways.

Brief Scores : India 174/5 (Shikhar Dhawan 90, Manish Pandey 37; Dushmantha Chameera 2/33, Danushka Gunathilaka 1/16) lost to Sri Lanka 175/5 (Kusal Perera 66, Thisara Perera 22; Washington Sundar 2/28, Yuzvendra Chahal 2/37) by 5 wickets.

Interesting suggestion

Is this the reason why India lost the match?
