Twitter reacts to Ashwin's magical spell and Ian Gould's 'Bucknor'-ness as India end day 1 on top

07/31/2016

Ravichandran Ashwin led the way for India with a brilliant five-wicket haul as West Indies were bowled out for 196. KL Rahul then put his team on the driving seat with an impeccable knock of 75. The Twitter went gaga over Ashwin and India's dominance, and here are some of the best tweets.

The banter began with the toss!

Congrats West Indies. You have won the only aspect of the match, you could have won #Toss #WIvIND

After Ishant's impressive first over!

If Ishant Sharma wants to retire on a high, that second over would be just about the right time.#IndvsWI

Even @SirIshantSharma Is Unable To Believe He Got Two Wickets In Two Balls. Normally It Takes Him 2 Matches. ;) #Ishant #IndvsWI #WIvIND

Now we know why Ishant didn't let his hair loose.

Ishant Sharma has been asked to tie his head in a bun to avoid celebrating like this when he gets on a roll #WivInd pic.twitter.com/8sZOXkaDgP

Too much Delhiness!

Delhi bowler, Delhi captain, Delhi commentator, this is way too much Delhi for even a Delhiite like me.#IndvsWI

After Ian Gould refuses to give yet another (4th refusal!) clear wicket.

Ian Gould has decided that he will not raise his finger today, no matter what!#WIvIND

Ian Gould will easily win "Steve Bucknor of the Match" award #WIvIND

Next for Ashwin..

Ashwin need to take 12 wickets in his next three innings to become fastest to take 200 wickets in Test history...
