Twitter reacts to Shikhar Dhawan's 'surgical strike'
India ended the first day at 239/7 as Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane scored fifties to guide them from a precarious position of 46/3 at one point. However, Twitterati were more concerned about Shikhar Dhawan, who was included ahead of Gautam Gambhir, and his failure to make use of the chance.
Gabbar is back! And so are the trolls!
Shikhar Dhawan is like the Nimbu Mirchi for Indian team - He gets out early to ensure the rest can score freely and are not distracted

Dhawan actually scored a ton with no values for 0s. #INDvNZ

Well! Will the Maggi man click?
India win the toss and elect to unleash Rohit Sharma first. #INDvNZ

Take that twist Gauti!
Virat Kohli Did #SurgicalStrike On Gautam Gambhir By Taking Him In Team But Not In The Playing XI. #INDvNZ #INDvsNZ Shikhar Dhawan

Well! Gabbar Ji, you might not like this!
Since scoring 187 on debut, Dhawan has accumulated only 207 runs in 11 innings in India with highest of 45*. #IndvNZ

Shikhar Dhawan Has Done Bhoomi Poojan For India In Eden Gardens At The Holy Occasion Of #Mahalaya#IndvNZ#IndVsNZ#NZvInd
— Sir Rohit Sharma (@imRo450) September 30, 2016
But we already had Rohit for that
Shikhar Dhawan is picked in the playing 11 so that we can make jokes on him #INDvNZ

Well! It is all about perspective!
Shikhar Dhawan got out 199 runs short of his double century! Meanwhile, Gautam Gambhir fans be like pic.twitter.com/SQqf9ZjYQ8

Did we pick the wrong Dhawan?
Even David Dhawan would have played better than Shikhar Dhawan #TrueStory
— Piyush Somani (@prvsomani) September 30, 2016
Ouch!
Why do Rickshawwalas hate Shikhar Dhawan?
— Nachiket Sant (@Nachiketsant22) September 30, 2016
Because he never stays on strike.#DhawanGoBack #BCCI @SushantNerurkar @get2abhijit
No difference!
Shikhar Dhawan is as important to Indian team as Poonam Pandey's costume designer. #indvnz
— Comedian Praveen (@Funny_Leone) September 30, 2016
No! Not that bad!
Selecting #Shikhar_Dhawan in place of #Gautam_Gambhir is like selecting BanglaDesh for HoneyMoon in place of Switzerland !!
— Bijay Kumar Baral (@ca_bijay) September 30, 2016
So will, Rohit!
Shikhar Dhawan will easily make it to Virat Kohli's India's Dream XI team.
— Be Yusuf (@barmare_yusuf) September 30, 2016
True that!
Pujara is like a food cooked by your mom. You realise it's (his) importance only when you don't have (get) it. #WIvIND

What about the walk back?
What does Shikhar Dhawan hv in common with Michael Jackson? They both wear gloves for no apparent reason. #indvnz

Sir Rohit is back!
Smart Rohit. Does not waste a start by not getting one. #INDvNZ
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) September 30, 2016
Rohit still has 3 innings to play the next series too. Hopefully will work out best for him.
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) September 30, 2016
He came, He saw, He got out.

The legend of Rohit Sharma...
Finally something has come to break the record!
Usain Bolt : Fast.
— Surgical Skills (@SmokingSkills_) September 30, 2016
Dhoni Stumping : Faster.
Dhawan getting out after coming to crease : Fastest.#INDvsNZ
Well! That is the reason!
Seems #RohitSharma came 2 play during the interval of #MSDhoniTheUntoldStory movie..!! #INDvsNZ
