To the huge disappointment of cricket-crazy fans in the country, Team India bowed out of the World T20 tournament after it lost to the West Indies in the semi-finals. Despite the heartbreaking exit, the Twitterati praised the team’s performance in the series, especially Virat Kohli’s. Legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, who was also present at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai, had some comforting words for the team through a tweet.
Tough luck boys. It was a good match and well fought! Best wishes to West Indies and England for the finals. #IndvsWI#WT20
As the West Indies team celebrated the victory showing off some dance moves on the field, a few other national teams too were happy to see Team India ousted from the series—especially Pakistan and Bangladesh. The victory threw their fans into a tizzy. Even noted names joined the bandwagon. Bangladeshi cricketer Mushfiqur Rahim was forced to delete his distasteful tweet after trolls steamrolled him on Twitter. Actress Veena Malik, who rose to stardom by the grace of the Indian entertainment industry, too took a quick jab.
What a match….. West Indies you done it… Dear India here is message from Pakistan… “Mouka Mouka” ???#IndvsWI
