India vs New Zealand: Second test, Day 1- Twitter Reactions

Kohli & Gambhir chatting like long-lost friends. Good to see after their interesting relationship all these years.#IndvNZ #IndvsNZ

Kohli should stop being a good friend and start being a more pragmatic captain. Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan can sit out! #indvsnz
— Rohit Joshi (@emceeaarjay) September 30, 2016

So what if this is a test match. Rohit Sharma didn't waste too many balls. All for the team & country!

@IndianMourinho I agree. India started with picking BOTH Dhawan and Rohit in the playing XI... To give NZ some real hope.

Third half century in a row...Cheteshwar 'consistent' Pujara. His success is a great advert for the success of Indian domestic season. 👏👏
— Aakash Chopra (@cricketaakash) September 30, 2016

Usain Bolt : Fast.
Dhoni Stumping : Faster.
Dhawan getting out after coming to crease : Fastest.#INDvsNZ

Pujara showing what patience can do on a slightly difficult wicket.
Great demonstration of sticking it out.@cheteshwar1

1st session clearly New Zealand's. But India bat very deep in this test. All hands on deck by the looks of it!
— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) September 30, 2016

Lost the first Test..

Lost the Toss..

Kane not playing..

Still New Zealand Played heart out to win the first session!

Dunno why people are having a go at V-Rat, his test average is still 0.3 runs ahead of the legend Gary Ballance.... #indvnz
— Innocent Bystander (@InnoBystander) September 30, 2016

Shikhar Dhawan is picked in the playing 11 so that we can make jokes on him #INDvNZ
— Cricket Bakchod (@AllTimeBakchod) September 30, 2016

What's Kohli's strike rate / average in Tests in India, must be way lower than in overseas' Tests - is he not at home, at home? #indvnz

Kohli : The Untold Cover Story tweet is wasted, or may be not.

Virat kohli gives tips to other batsmen and talks about their selection
but gets out everytime after playing a needless shot #indvsnz
— Whocares (@H2OMarks) September 30, 2016

When ur partner slows down the game u get affected thats what happened to Kohli.
— Makarand Waingankar (@wmakarand) September 30, 2016

Gambhir selected in the team but not in the playing eleven for out of form Shikhar Dhawan?
Kohli seriously did a surgical strike on Gambhir!
— Sir Ravindra Jadeja (@SirJadejjaa) September 30, 2016

That hideous shot from Kohli sets up the obvious Rohit Sharma ton nicely#INDvNZ
— Pratyush Sinha (@prat1204) September 30, 2016

6 innings since Virat Kohli's 200, he is yet to cross 45. #AreaToImprove
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) September 30, 2016

Whole team will play some useless shots. End of match talking: pujara's strike rate
— Sidvee (@sidvee) September 30, 2016

Kohli's love towards 9s & 18s.
— Sampath 🏏 (@SAMPATHB24) September 30, 2016

The way Kohli is getting out these days makes it more obvious on why he continues to pick Rohit Sharma in the Test team #INDvNZ
— Cricket Bakchod (@AllTimeBakchod) September 30, 2016

Kohli is a great chaser... outside off stump

Shikhar Dhawan got out early bcoz he is going to watch FDFS of #MSDhoniTheUntoldStory

Shikhar Dhawan's career is now placed forever in Eden Gardens. pic.twitter.com/i8v9xb5SQY

Shikhar Dhawan should be the
next brand ambassador of
Maggi noodles because 2 mins
that's how much time he
spends at the crease.

Gautam Gambhir ko playing eleven mein select nahi kiya.. naam Gambhir hai to kya hamesha gambhir hi rakhoge use.. such a shame!
— Keh Ke Peheno (@coolfunnytshirt) September 30, 2016

selected in the team but not selected for the playing eleven.. surgical strike on Gambhir!
— Keh Ke Peheno (@coolfunnytshirt) September 30, 2016

*Would 2G have scored more speculation tweet* #INDvNZ
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) September 30, 2016

KL Rahul Injured..

Gambhir back with the form..

Still Dhawan got the chance & Failed!

aur khilao dhawan ko! ~ gambhir
— Keh Ke Peheno (@coolfunnytshirt) September 30, 2016

Dhawan actually scored a ton with no values for 0s. #INDvNZ
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) September 30, 2016

As it looks, Shikhar Dhawan might be dropped even before the second innings... #INDvsNZ
— Vignesh Ananthasub (@MadridistaSays) September 30, 2016

Ball swinging wheeee and bouncing whoosh. Do you play horizontal batted shots or vertical batted?
— PBR (@bagrat15) September 30, 2016

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
