IPL 2017: Twitter Reacts As Tournament Kicks Off With A Lukewarm Opening Ceremony
Apr 5, 2017 at 7:26 PM
The much-anticipated tenth edition of the Indian Premier League kick started with the customary opening ceremony in Hyderabad. Over the past few years, the fans have witnessed some really glittering and star-studded opening ceremonies but something was missing from this year’s opening ceremony.
The ceremony began on a brilliant note with India’s ‘fab four’ Virender Sehwag, VVS Laxman, Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly taking a lap around the ground and wave to the spectators. Thereafter, they were felicitated by the BCCI officials. The stage was then taken by Bollywood actress Amy Jackson who danced to few Bollywood tracks before the ceremony was wrapped up.
Here is how Twitter reacted to the opening ceremony of this edition:
From Enrique to Pitbull, Priyanka and Deepika to Amy Jackson. IPL opening ceremony's standard is lowering more than its matches.
