India vs Australia | Twitter Reacts to KL Rahul and MS Dhoni setting Chinnaswamy on fire
Although India lost the second T20I against Australia, it was a really satisfying effort from the Indian batsmen, especially KL Rahul and MS Dhoni who added a vital 47 and 40 to the scoreboard. Twitter was flooded with praise for the duo and also heaped praise on the other Indian batsmen.
Some interesting changes for India! Experimenting for the World Cup?
Unchanged Australia.

India leaves Rohit, Umesh and Markande out for Dhawan, Kaul and Shankar. #indvaus
Dhawan had a really bad night in the middle today! 15 off 24 balls! :O
Shikhar Dhawan is struggling so badly that he should have announced his retirement at the middle of the pitch through stump mice. 😂 #IndvAus
