India defeated hosts Bangladesh by six wickets in their first group stage with six balls remaining. Virat Kohli (136) was the star for India in this match smashing yet another century. Predictably Twitter world went berserk on Virat, as we, at Sportzwiki, look at the some rib tickling tweets from this match. No sooner did the match begin people were fed up of Star Sports new innovations in Asia Cup

A word, err, I mean a tweet on Mushfiqur Rahim’s hundred which took Bangladesh to a competitive 280, but somehow Pakistan fans manage to bring Misbah in!
Mushfiqur Rahim has registered his 2nd ODI century in his 126th ODI. When will Misbah score his maiden ton? #AsiaCup
