The Indian fans and former Indian cricketers were full of praises as the Indian cricket team defeated Australia in their first match of the tournament and it was certainly a great win, especially after India losing three wickets at the score of 2.
The legendary former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar was also very happy as he tweeted, “I was surprised to see Australia bat first after winning the toss. Commendable performance by the Indian bowlers to restrict them to 199. Australia started well but I felt they missed a left-arm spinner on this surface. The partnership between Virat and Rahul sealed the game for us. They very smartly took their time and were able to execute some superb shots. The ball surely came onto the bat much better in the second half of the game. Congratulations to #TeamIndia on a good start.”
While the tweet by Little Master got a good number of reactions, things turned a little funny when the former Indian cricketer Laxman Sivaramakrishnan also reacted on a tweet and wrote that he called Sachin three times but he didn’t pick the phone and asked whether there is any chance of talking to him.
Laxman wrote, “Wanted to talk to you, called 3 times and sent you a message. Is there any chance of talking to you?”
Laxman Sivaramakrishnan has been in news of-late for making some comments about Ravichandran Ashwin which haven’t gone well with the fans of Anna and Laxman has been trolled by them.
Soon the Indian Twitterati reacted on this tweet by Laxman and here are some selected reactions:
Well, Sachin hasn’t responded to the tweet yet and we have no idea whether he has talked to Laxman Sivaramakrishnan or not but this has certainly given us a chance to laugh a little.
