Warner took 17 balls to get from 90 to 100. But no Aussie journo will ask their captain/coach if Aussie batsmen are stats hungry. #AusvInd

Umesh Yadav seems to be auctioning runs like Modi. Kitne run du is over mein ? 10, 12, 14 ? Chalo 18 run #AUSvIND

Problem with Indian bowlers is that they start competing with Indian batsmen, who will get more runs on scoreboard.

Until we change cricket discourse to give more importance to match-winning performances, it’s just hypocritical to talk milestones. #AUSvIND

Rohit Sharma is the new Sachin Tendulkar. India didn’t lose when Sachin scored a half century #IndvsAus
— CRICKBC (@crickBC) January 23, 2016
Rohit Sharma now has 378 runs in this series. These are the most runs scored by any batsman in a bilateral ODI series in Australia. #AUSvIND

Parthiv Patel also deserves some credit, I think. He got the best out of Bumrah during the Vijay Hazare Trophy. #AUSvIND
— Bharath Ramaraj (@Fancricket12) January 23, 2016
Another rare instance where SIr Ishant sharma gave just 4 runs in last over. This will be recorded in the HISTORY of cricket.

I don’t know you but I will find you and take you to end overs #AUSvIND

If Umesh Yadav will play for next 5 years, he can concede more runs than sachin scored in his whole career.
— Silly Point (@Sarcaism) January 23, 2016
Great, after the Netaji files, the govt. should now disclose the Umesh Yadav files. #IndvsAus

Dhoni is so idiotic, Pandey cant make up these idiocies with his brilliance. #IndvsAus

Those pads of MSD have scored so many over the years…

Only nine boundaries for Manish Pandey, but he finished with a strike rate of 128. That is the sign of a high quality batsman! #AUSvIND

Man Of The Match To Rohit Sharma For Getting OUT On 99. 😉 #IndvsAus #AUSvIND
— Sir Ravindra Jadeja (@SirJadeja) January 23, 2016
Dhoni must be awarded ‘ Man of the Match’ for avoiding the criticism because India won this game . #IndvsAus

Jasprit Bumrah: Wickets waale column mein main bold aur capital mein ‘ OPPOSITION CAPTAIN’ likhta hu #AUSvIND
— CRICKBC (@crickBC) January 23, 2016
If that kind of off spin makes Gurkeerat an allrounder, then Rohit & Raina are all rounders.
— Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) January 23, 2016
Bumrah bowled well but Yadav made sure that it doesn’t affect the final scoreline. That’s teamwork.
— dorku (@Dorkstar) January 23, 2016
Maxwell doesn’t care about milestone, but goes for a wild slog when he is at 96 and team needs 1. Okay then. #AusvInd

Indian bowlers are as clueless as an engineer on a first date

Virat got out because he didn’t wanna spoil his centuries to win ratio.He knew the inevitable #respect
