Twitter reacts to Dhoni's brilliant stumping to dismiss Tharanga
BCCI Twitter
MS Dhoni was the major topic of discussion on Twitter as he pulled off yet another brilliant stumping to remove Upul Tharanga when he was at 95. The Twitterati then showered praise on Shikhar Dhawan and Shreyas Iyer who batted brilliantly and ensured a win for India and wraped up the series 2-1.
Brief
Here are the funny tweets from the match:
Even though Sri Lanka lost a wicket early, Upul Tharanga continued to punish the Indian bowlers!

But when Tharanga reached 95, he was struck by the "Lightning" storm!
Kuldeep Yadav deceived Upul Tharanga with his trickery & MS Dhoni did the rest. #INDvSL pic.twitter.com/UZgnOLF5eD

Unbelievable..Its almost 2018 and umpires are still reviewing and checking after Dhoni has appealed for a stumping 💁♂️ #IndvSL
Then came the major blunder from Bhuvi!
Shocking by Bhuvi! A run-out opportunity but he fails to collect the ball cleanly. What was he doing? #INDvSL

How could you miss that run out Bhuvi ? Blunder #INDvSL

Rohit Sharma started off well for India!

Well, that escalated quickly!
SIX and OUT. Shahid Afridi will be proud of that. #INDvSL

Rohit Sharma is consistently inconsistent, so you are wrong!
Rohit Sharma is a man of many talents. Consistency is not one of them. Just saying. #INDvSL

Shikhar Dhawan becomes the second batsman to score 1000-plus runs against Sri Lanka in a calendar year in ODIs after Virat Kohli (also in 2017). #INDvSL

Have to agree with this guy!
“GABBAR” Shikhar Dhawan has played so many match winning innings in limited overs format till now, still some people criticise him. He is the only cricketer to win 2 consecutive “golden bats” at ICC Champions Trophy! #IndVSL

What a solid win to wrap up the series!
That's it and that's a wrap. #TeamIndia do it in style and win the series 2-1 #INDvSL pic.twitter.com/ftYwFqSNYQ
